No one knew how strong he was, only that he had survived the Immortal Demon War and returned to the Sky Sect to undergo closed-door seclusion to heal his injuries. It was just that after so many years, his fame had been forgotten, and he had been completely forgotten about.

Although we have considered the three sects' alliance this time around, in truth, although we all say that he is the greatest obstacle in this battle, we actually do not care too much about him. After all, after disappearing for hundreds of thousands of years, we thought that he was merely in the sky realm.

He was even more imposing than Du Xiang by three points. This time, it was truly the best choice to use the unfathomable Qiu Xuan to meet him head on. Once Qiu Xuan lost, it would be the time for me and Du Xiang to join hands.

When I heard that Qiu Xuan was going to fight, I quickly retreated, leaving a wide space for the two to fight. I also noticed the calm and collected expressions on Qiu Xi's and Ling Xuan's faces, as if they had complete confidence in this severely injured elder.

Xuan Daozi coldly looked at Qiu Xuan, the aura around his body rapidly rising. It was solemn and heavy, and even though we were quite a distance away, we could still feel an enormous pressure pressing down on us, causing our chests to feel heavy.

However, Qiu Xuan showed no signs of backing down. Sword intent burst forth as an extremely sharp aura gushed forth. Although the crowd was not affected by the cold, their bodies were still trembling and their skin was tingling. They were extremely astonished by Qiu Xuan's strength.

The auras of the two sides were evenly matched as they stood facing each other in the clear night sky. Starlight was hard to see, and the moon was bright without a trace!

"Buzz!"

An extremely solemn voice came out from Xuan Daozi. His already extraordinary face immediately began to emit a white brilliance, causing all those who heard of him to have a solemn expression on their faces.

Even though I am a Heavenly Realm cultivator, I still have the urge to respect and admire him even under such an atmosphere.

"Clang!"

Just as everyone was immersed in a solemn atmosphere, the shadow of the sword on Qiu Xuan's body flashed. A clear sword hum immediately spread out, its sound wasn't loud, and it was somewhat melodious, but it instantly dispelled everyone's feelings of worship towards Xuan Daozi and restored their original state of mind. As they thought of the changes that had occurred, their faces were all filled with surprise as they looked at Xuan Daozi and Qiu Xuan with eyes filled with fear.

Xuan Daozi's complexion changed as he saw Qiu Xuan's aura. He turned serious and said slowly, "The name of this old man's palm is Poisonous Water!"

Xuan Daozi slowly extended his right palm, and a black cloud slowly appeared in the sky as well. As his right palm slowly grew larger, the black cloud covered the sky and the earth, blocking out the starlight and covering the bright moon. It gave off an extremely oppressive and depressing feeling.

Qiu Xuan slowly extended his right palm, but bent three fingers, leaving only the middle one of his forefinger together. From the looks of it, it was nothing more than an ordinary sword finger.

"This sword is nameless!"

Xuan Daozi revealed a slightly resentful expression. It was no wonder that he had announced the name of this move before making his move; it could also be considered a form of respect towards his opponent. Xuan Daozi had clearly acknowledged Qiu Xuan's strength, which was why he had said the name of that palm strike.

Xuan Daozi flipped his right palm, causing the dark clouds in the sky to roil about. They actually turned into a gigantic bird that covered the entire sky, emitting a thick killing intent.

Qiu Xuan was still the same as before. When he saw the giant bird, he curled his right hand slightly and a faint ray of sword light flashed on his two fingers.

"Hah!"

With a loud shout, Xuan Daozi pressed his right palm down! The giant bird in the sky immediately opened its extremely clear eyes.

"Chirp!"

With a clear cry, the giant bird pressed down towards Qiu Xuan at an extremely fast speed. However, because the distance was too far, in our opinion, it was not very fast.

Seeing the giant bird approach, Qiu Xuan stepped forward.

"Clang!"

Countless sword energies shot out from his two fingers and struck the giant bird. The giant bird was blocked by the sword energies, but it was unable to move forward, and Xuan Daozi's right palm couldn't even press down a bit!

"Ha!"

Xuan Daozi let out another roar and pressed down a few more inches on the bird with his right palm. The giant bird also sank several thousand feet into the ground, making it look even larger than before.

Qiu Xuan remained calm, but the sword qi did not dissipate. Instead, it slowly condensed into one stream, turning into a thousand feet long sword qi that fiercely stabbed into the giant bird's forehead!

"Chirp!"

With a scream, the giant bird's body trembled, shaking off a large portion of the dark clouds and dissipating them, turning them into a cool breeze that scattered in all directions. I reached out my hand and a gust of wind blew past, stopping in my palm, but I felt that the wind was a little abnormal.

I suddenly raised my head to look at the giant bird, only to see that its head had already been minced by the sword energy, and its body was also falling apart. Xuan Daozi's face was pale, and his veins were popping out, but traces of a crack had appeared on his right palm.

"Pfft!"

Biting the tip of his tongue, Xuan Daozi opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood onto his right palm. The giant bird in the sky suddenly grew a head, and its eyes turned blood-red as if it had been possessed by a devil.

A lot of people could no longer withstand the powerful pressure and landed on the ground. Only a few people were still holding on. Du Xiang and Elder Bai were still there, but Elder Bai had already propped up an ice wall to protect himself. This battle was no longer something that ordinary cultivators could participate in.

Bang!" "With a dull thud, Qiu Xuan pointed his finger out. The sword Qi gave off a dazzling glow as it chopped the entire bird into pieces. It turned into dark clouds that filled the sky, slowly dissipating into nothingness.

The sleeve on Xuan Daozi's right hand had already been shattered, and his trembling right arm was covered with cracks. He was looking at Qiu Xuan with disbelief written all over his face.

"You've lost!"

"Humph, if I wasn't seriously injured, a mere brat like you would have been killed several times by the backhand!"

"But you still lost!"

"You..."

I looked at Du Ji and coldly snorted as I interrupted, "If you can't retreat after losing, then I'll kill you right here!"

On the other hand, I gathered fire to form a fire bird. Qiu Hong cackled strangely and the black aura around his body surged. Even Elder Bai was covered in chilliness as he held the ice sword in his hand with a face full of killing intent.

As of this moment, the five of them were fighting Xuan Daozi. Considering how heavily injured he was, there was no way he would be able to gain anything in return.

"Kill!"

Du Xiang was the first to rush forward. He threw out the wind rifle as if it didn't consume any spiritual power, knocking Xuan Daozi backwards.

Every time he swung his sword, a large chunk of ice would attack Xuan Daozi, and Xuan Daozi had no choice but to distract himself to defend against it. As a result, Qiu Hong's strange black Qi descended, corroding a large chunk of his flesh.

I joined the battle as well, the flames burning fiercely. Along with the power of the wind element, the fire was even more powerful. Xuan Daozi's three inch white beard was burnt to a mere inch, making him howl out in anger.

Qiu Xuan didn't join in. Instead, he withdrew his sword qi, and with a grave expression, he stood there like a sword.

The robe was already tattered, and only a little of his hair and beard had been burnt away. With a face covered in blood, he staggered back to the third mountain peak and used some kind of spirit treasure to lay down a barrier to protect himself within the third mountain peak. The four of us, when joining forces, were actually unable to break through the barrier, and even Qiu Hong's black aura was powerless.

The third mountain peak was completely barren without any vegetation. Xuan Daozi was sitting cross-legged in rage, healing his injuries. Behind him stood Ling Xuan and Ling Kong, who had indifferent expressions on their faces.

"Humph, a tiger falling to the ground, if it weren't for the fact that this old man is heavily injured, you all can forget about getting even a single strand of hair on this old man's head!"

"A human deserter, how dare he act so haughtily!"

Doubtful, he looked at Du Xiang, only to see that his eyes were calm and filled with killing intent.

Xuan Daozi's complexion changed, as if he had been stabbed in a sore spot. His face was ashen, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak. The seal in his body loosened, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Ling Xuan hurried forward and said, "Grandmaster, even though our strength is low, we are still people close to the Heavenly Realm. Why don't we help you heal your wounds, temporarily suppress your injuries, and then kill them all!"

"Alright then!" Xuan Daozi helplessly glared at Du Ji, then immediately sat down cross-legged again. Ling Xuan and Ling Kong looked at each other. The corners of their mouths curled into evil smiles as they placed their palms on Xuan Daozi's back.

A powerful Spiritual Energy filled Xuan Daozi's body. After seeing Ling Xuan's smile, I felt that something was wrong, but I didn't know what they were planning.

A moment later, Xuan Daozi suddenly opened his eyes as he heard a series of popping sounds coming from Xuan Daozi's body. A look of shock appeared in his eyes as he turned around and struck out with his palm and angrily said, "You lied to me!"

Another stream of blood mist burst out from his body. Looking at the Qi Watching Art, one could see that the sealing power in his body was being dissipated by the Profound Spirit Qi and the Spiritual Qi. The injuries that he had suppressed with much difficulty were now quickly spreading.

"Hahahaha, Master Ancestor, you have been healing yourself for so many years, there is no need to waste any more time. Your cultivation, why don't you let me take advantage of you!"

Ling Kong looked at the shocked and furious Xuan Daozi. He no longer bothered to hide anything as his ambition was exposed.

Xuan Daozi, who hadn't appeared for hundreds of thousands of years, couldn't hold back from laughing bitterly. He had been stifled for so long, and was now prepared to let things go.

"Whatever. This old man's body has been in ruins for hundreds of thousands of years. Today, I will make my final stand and perish together with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the seal within his body was suddenly broken. The moment his injuries expanded, all of his former cultivation had been completely restored!

Drinking poison to quench thirst was no different from this!

Xuan Daozi's robes fluttered in the wind, and a powerful aura exploded out. The barrier was only maintained for a moment before it shattered, but spiderweb-like cracks appeared all over Xuan Daozi's body. His eyes were filled with madness and killing intent, and his face was covered with wounds.

We were forced back more than a hundred feet by that soaring aura. It was with great difficulty that we managed to stabilize ourselves.

Although Ling Xuan and Ling Kong were surprised, their eyes were filled with greed and joy. I know that Xuan Daozi has been tricked!

In front of Xuan Daozi's shocked eyes, he walked step by step towards Xuan Daozi. As he swept the horsetail whisk through his hand, thousands of strands of energy instantly wrapped around Xuan Daozi, causing him to be greatly shocked. The spirit energy in his body suddenly exploded, but he saw that the thread was completely unharmed.

Xuan Daozi wasn't the only one who was stunned. All of us were stunned on the spot. Just what cultivation level was this Ling Xuan at?

Ling Xuan laughed lightly. He threw the horsetail whisk and the flying silk immediately returned to him. Xuan Daozi's entire body was now covered with dense cracks. After a moment, it gradually broke and dissipated in the air …
