Chapter 3307: Yin Yang Eighteen Formations vs Yin Yang Eighteen Formations
Queen Daixue looked toward the direction of the Transformation Platform, where the other Canghai Grand Elder still sat on the stone stool.
Canghai Grand Elder held a Space Divine Crystal Staff in his hand, speaking unhurriedly, "Don't bother looking. That is merely a spiritual power doppelganger of mine. With your cultivation levels, you cannot see through it."
Queen Daixue was, after all, a top-tier ancient god. She released her spiritual power thoughts, manifesting tens of thousands of spiritual power doppelgangers at key positions of various formations throughout the Tongtian Divine Temple.
Her graceful and slender figure appeared everywhere.
But in the next instant, tens of thousands of Canghai Grand Elders also appeared within the temple, each wielding different divine arts, shattering Queen Daixue's spiritual power doppelgangers one by one.
"What change has occurred?" came the urgent voice of Ming Jianshen from outside the temple.
Queen Daixue, who had been on the verge of despair, saw hope and immediately transmitted her voice back: "Canghai and Jia Tianxia are inside the temple."
Then she added, "Quan Zhongsheng, Puerbas, strike with full force to open a gap in the temple's formation. Only by bringing Ming Jianshen in can we deal with them."
Canghai Grand Elder's eyes were deep and dark. With a thought, a spatial tearing force struck Queen Daixue.
Queen Daixue's features were noble and pure, her skin as white as jade porcelain. At this moment, a blood-red crack appeared at her brow, spreading down to her neck and chest, as if her body were about to be torn in two.
Spiritual power and divine qi surged wildly around her as she struggled to bring her hands together.
Instantly, a pair of thin, radiant light wings emerged from her back, erupting with dazzling divine light. Cold air howled, and countless ice spikes appeared within the temple, breaking Canghai Grand Elder's spatial technique.
"Oh? Snow Elf Wings!" Canghai Grand Elder remarked.
The Snow Elf Wings were an ability granted only to each generation's Elf Queen, capable of unleashing power equivalent to a Great Perfection Infinite-level divine technique.
Vines grew from the cold air beneath Queen Daixue's feet, blocking Canghai Grand Elder's advance. At the same time, she produced a crystalline longbow and the Arrow of Shooting Gods.
Strangely, no matter how hard she tried, she could not draw the bowstring.
Space had frozen solid!
Canghai Grand Elder suddenly appeared before her. All the vines burst into flames, and the Space Divine Crystal Staff struck like lightning.
Queen Daixue's protective divine light proved fragile, shattering like layers of bubbles.
"Your Majesty, Puerbas is here to aid you!"
Puerbas, radiant with divine light, raised his battle axe and brought it down with tremendous force. His immense divine power clashed with the Space Divine Crystal Staff.
Puerbas was a top-tier legendary figure, overshadowing the Taixu Great Gods of the Radiant Divine Temple and Shangqiu. In terms of combat power, he could rank among the top three of Paradise Realm.
"Boom!"
Even with the combined strength of Queen Daixue and Puerbas, they could not withstand Canghai Grand Elder's strike.
A spatial shockwave struck them, sending both flying backward.
Outside the temple.
"Hold them off. I am coming to assist you now!"
Zhang Ruochen manifested tens of thousands of sword qi before him, forming a river of sword energy that broke through the layers of formations and divine patterns outside the Tongtian Divine Temple as he advanced rapidly.
As long as the three Great Gods of Paradise Realm could hold Canghai Grand Elder back, preventing him from activating the divine formation, Zhang Ruochen was confident he could force his way in.
After all, Canghai Grand Elder had only arrived at the Tongtian Divine Temple a few days ago. He could not have mastered all the formations within it yet.
Quan Zhongsheng, Puerbas, and Queen Daixue fought desperately, each unleashing their ultimate techniques.
Canghai Grand Elder's spiritual power was at the pinnacle below the Infinite Realm, but the confined space within the temple put him at a disadvantage, limiting many of his abilities.
Above the Tongtian Divine Temple, Canghai Grand Elder had set up spatial techniques to conceal any fluctuations in divine power.
Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen had also deployed the Blood Soul Banner he had seized from Xue Li, enveloping the area to minimize detection by other gods of Paradise Realm.
"Swish, swish!"
Ten thousand swords flew in unison, striking the temple's main gate.
The gate was blasted open, shaking a region spanning countless miles. It was impossible to conceal any longer—some gods of Paradise Realm must have sensed the disturbance.
Finish this quickly!
Zhang Ruochen, clad in white, flashed into the temple and declared, "Canghai, old villain! I am here. Surrender now!"
Within the peach grove, the battle was brutal, with divine blood everywhere.
Shattered divine realm worlds lay in pieces on the ground. Mountains had collapsed, severed rivers hung in midair, and the peach grove was heavily damaged.
Puerbas, who had made it onto both the Physical Body and Axe Dao rankings of the *Great God Treatise*, had his powerful body torn apart by spatial forces, reduced to chunks of flesh and blood.
Canghai Grand Elder used spatial power to temporarily seal the flesh chunks in different locations, preventing Puerbas from reforming his physical body.
Queen Daixue was also severely wounded. Her Snow Elf Wings had been severed, blood flowed from her back, and her aura had plummeted. At this moment, she was pinned in place by the Space Divine Crystal Staff.
Canghai Grand Elder's right hand reached toward her brow, aiming to breach her divine sea and seize her divine source.
Hearing the sword's cry, the ashen-faced Queen Daixue finally showed a hint of joy.
Ming Jianshen had arrived! She was saved!
Ming Jianshen was, after all, a figure who had once ranked on the comprehensive list of the *Great God Treatise*. Even without his divine sword and Sword Dao Essence, his cultivation remained extraordinary.
Zhang Ruochen fully immersed himself in the role of Ming Jianshen. As he swung his sword, he made sure to call out, "With me here, who dares touch Her Majesty?"
Canghai Grand Elder had spent considerable time, but Queen Daixue's cultivation and spiritual power were formidable. She had been resisting him, hiding her divine source.
Unable to locate the divine source, Canghai Grand Elder unleashed his spiritual power, sending Queen Daixue flying.
Gripping the Space Divine Crystal Staff tightly, he swung his arm to parry the war sword behind him.
It was not a physical clash but a strike of spiritual power.
The staff emitted intense spatial fluctuations, layering and amplifying his strength.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen felt a powerful gravitational space pressing down on him.
"As expected of one of the top spiritual power masters in the world today. Combined with spatial power, his combat prowess is truly extraordinary," Zhang Ruochen thought to himself.
If the real Ming Jianshen were here, facing Canghai Grand Elder's successive moves, he would certainly suffer greatly.
Zhang Ruochen employed spatial techniques to deftly neutralize the gravitational space pressing on him.
"Bang!"
Sword and staff collided.
Canghai Grand Elder plummeted straight down into the peach grove, cratering a vast area.
Confusion flickered in his eyes. How could Ming Jianshen's spatial mastery be so profound, effortlessly breaking his gravitational space?
Zhang Ruochen gave him no time to think. He summoned an endless stream of sword qi and charged straight at him.
"Bang, bang!"
Canghai Grand Elder drove the staff into the ground, forming a spatial barrier that blocked all incoming sword qi.
Queen Daixue, her spirit and divine soul heavily damaged, flew back over. Seeing Ming Jianshen suppressing Canghai Grand Elder, she felt a surge of admiration.
This was the true pinnacle of power below the Infinite Realm!
A gentleman in white, wielding his sword across the world.
Since he was fighting at full strength, with his aura leaking out, Zhang Ruochen feared Queen Daixue might notice something amiss. He quickly said, "Your Majesty, go take control of the temple's formation. Use it to slay this old scoundrel!"
Queen Daixue grew new cicada wings on her back, radiating cold air as she soared upward.
A furious roar erupted from the spatial barrier below, unleashing a terrifying spiritual power attack that struck Queen Daixue.
Canghai Grand Elder had employed a top-tier divine art of the Space Divine Temple: Soul-Splitting Slash.
Queen Daixue's divine soul had already suffered repeated injuries, leaving her in a weakened state. Hit by the spiritual power divine art, her divine soul was torn in two. She let out a muffled groan and plummeted toward the ground.
This time, she had suffered a wound that would affect her very foundation.
However, Canghai Grand Elder's use of this divine art gave Zhang Ruochen an opening.
"Whoosh!"
Zhang Ruochen merged with his sword, transforming into a dazzling beam of sword light that stabbed downward. He no longer concealed his aura, unleashing his full power. His divine might surged higher and higher.
Six divine swords flew out, accompanying him.
"It's you—"
Canghai Grand Elder's white hair flew wildly, his eyes sharp as blades as he thrust the Space Divine Crystal Staff forward.
"Boom!"
The spatial barrier was shattered.
The Space Divine Crystal Staff clashed with the war sword in Zhang Ruochen's hand, both exploding into fragments.
Canghai Grand Elder's physical body was pierced by the six divine swords, instantly destroyed. The blood mist was burned away.
But at his level of spiritual power, the physical body was no longer so important. Even the divine soul could be discarded.
Zhang Ruochen did not dare relax. He was about to retrieve the Earth Cauldron.
Suddenly, terrifying spatial fluctuations erupted from underground. Dense spatial inscription patterns shot upward, coalescing into one spatial divine formation after another.
"Yin Yang Eighteen Formations!"
Zhang Ruochen was startled. He immediately flew backward, ascending into the air, where he also manifested the Yin Yang Eighteen Formations.
Eighteen spatial divine formations and eighteen formation worlds—one above, one below—collided.
Spatial fluctuations surged like tidal waves in all directions, completely destroying the peach grove.
Queen Daixue, already severely wounded, was swept away by the spatial waves.
The flesh chunks of Puerbas, which had been sealed in various underground locations, were all thrown out.
A weak divine thought reached Zhang Ruochen's ears: "Stop showing off! Even though you both have the Yin Yang Eighteen Formations, his spiritual power far surpasses yours. You'll lose badly. Save me first! Once I'm free, I'll beat them all to death!"
Zhang Ruochen looked toward Chi Xingtian on the distant Transformation Platform. He was truly in a miserable state—nailed to a cross, his blood nearly drained dry.
Xuanyuan Lian had promised to keep him and Princess Shenba alive, but it seemed that was all—just barely alive.
