Seeing the Heavenly soldiers and generals coming to capture him, Mo Yanliang was not surprised at all. He had been training desperately during this time in anticipation for their arrival.
Xie Baichen who was standing beside him seemed more surprised than the person involved. He looked like he had just remembered this matter and the first thing he wanted to do was to hide Mo Yanliang: "Yunqing, you leave quickly. Your master is here, I will not let them take you away."
Even though he could feel Mo Yanliang's rapid progress every time they sparred during this time, Xie Baichen still felt guilty towards Mo Yanliang.
In his opinion, the Immortal Realm was powerful, it's not possible for Mo Yanliang to resist alone. This time, it's up to him, the master, to step up.
Xie Baichen could vaguely guessed the reason as to why Mo Yanliang had such rapid improvement was maybe because he didn't give divine blood during this time...
As expected, it was because of his divine blood, this made Xie Baichen felt even guiltier.
Mo Yanliang was a little surprised. When Xie Baichen saw the Heavenly soldiers and generals, his first reaction was to let him go instead of capturing him and take him back to Immortal realm... For Xie Baichen, who always abides by the rules of heaven, it's already considered an extraordinary behaviour.
Mo Yanliang had no intention to leave. He knew that since the Immortal Emperor found out that he was not dead, he will definitely not let him go. Instead of fleeing in panic, direct confrontation would be better and he could see the results of his training during this time.
Taking advantage of the time before the Heavenly soldiers and generals arrived, Mo Yanling voiced his doubts to Xie Baichen: "Master wants to let me go? Did you forget that the Heavenly barrier still needs my blood? If you let me go, aren't you worried about the Heavenly barrier breaking?"
Watching Xie Baichen's expression instantly froze, Mo Yanliang found it quite funny. It seemed like Xie Baichen really forgotten.
Xie Baichen was silent for a brief moment, when he saw Mo Yanliang's half-smiling expression, he felt a sudden pang of distress. He spoke as if he had made up his mind: "Hurry and leave. I will explain this to Immortal Emperor. If you don't leave now, it'll be too late!"
"Master, you really letting me leave? Aren't you betraying the Immortal realm and Immortal Emperor by acting like this?
Compared to Xie Baichen's conflicted look, Mo Yanliang seemed much calmer.
Mo Yanliang could see that Xie Baichen was wavering again.
Not sure if he really wanted to remind Xie Baichen or just wanted to see him get more conflicted, Mo Yanliang reminded Xie Baichen again: ""Master, the Heavenly barrier required me to bleed every month to maintain it, but how long has it been since I last bleed? Is the barrier broken? Master, don't you think there is a problem?"
Before Xie Baichen could say anything, the clouds carrying the Heavenly soldiers and generals had already arrived above the courtyard.
Xie Baichen knew that his little apprentice couldn't escape anymore, he could only stood in front of Mo Yanliang. As a master, he wanted to blocked all this for him(MYL).
"Mo Yunqing, I came here on the order of the Immortal Emperor to capture you, why don't you surrender quickly?"
The one leading the immortals to capture Mo Yanliang this time was the Phoenix Immortal Lord. As for the other Heavenly soldiers and general, Mo Yanliang couldn't recognized each one.
Surrendering without a fight was impossible. Mo Yanliang took out the Seven Treasure gourd and took a sip of wine, the fighting spirit in his eyes getting stronger.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's fight!"
After drinking, Mo Yanliang threw the gourd away, and the Seven Treasure gourd returned to his waist automatically.
"Ungrateful!"
There was a loud roar from the sky, followed by a strong wind.
A strong wind swept in with a roar, and in an instant, sand and rocks flew everywhere. The trees were whistling in the wind, and those big trees seemed about to be uprooted. Even Mo Yanliang's entire courtyard began to tremble and sway, as if it would be blown down by the wind in an instant.
Accompanying the strong wind were lightning and thunder. The sky was originally clear, but now dark clouds pressed down, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
Thunder and lightning landed above Mo Yanliang's head. Xie Baichen wanted to block for Mo Yanliang, but Mo Yanliang was faster than him. He formed seals with his hands in front of his chest, and a barrier appeared directly above his head, blocking the attack.
The lightning burst out with dazzling light in an instant, as if it was going to blind people's eyes. The strong light made it hard for people around to open their eyes.
Thunder from the sky continued to explode one after another around Mo Yanliang.
In the eyes of the immortals, it was not difficult to capture Mo Yanliang. They could easily capture him by beating him half to death. As long as they keep his life, they didn't need to worry about anything else.
With all the immortals coming together, it should be a sure thing.
In front of so many heavenly soldiers and generals, Mo Yanliang's small courtyard was like a small boat in the ocean, which could be destroyed at any time.
But just as the immortals felt certain, the layout of the entire courtyard changed completely.
Right now, Mo Yunqing was sitting in the middle of the house and there's a chessboard in front of him. Mo Yunqing twirled the chess piece in his hands. Every time he placed a piece, the courtyard terrain changed.
Mo Yunqing was changing the formation.
Without Mo Yanliang's body, Mo Yunqing would not be able to directly participate in the battle.
But he also didn't want Mo Yanliang to face so many Heavenly soldiers and generals alone. He had experienced that feeling before, and it was terrible... so he didn't want Mo Yanliang to experience it too.
So when he predicted that the Immortal Emperor would soon send the Heavenly General to capture Mo Yanliang, he had already begun to set up the formation in this small courtyard.
Over the past thousand years, Mo Yunqing not only became more powerful through cultivation, but he also dabbled in formations, alchemy, and refining, and he learned them all quite well.
Mo Yunqing set up a thousand-door formation in the courtyard. Each door corresponds to a certain effect. It may be useless against the most powerful immortals, but it was very effective attacks against ordinary immortals.
The immortals standing on the clouds all had a condescending attitude and each displayed their own magical powers.
Seeing the small courtyard in danger and Mo Yanliang had no way to escape, the immortals who saw this scene laughed mockingly... Going against the Immortal Emperor and betraying the Immortal realm would naturally lead to punishment.
However, the situation changed rapidly, and they suddenly felt that the ordinary courtyard on the ground suddenly became strange.
When the wind enters it, it dies.
When lightning flashes, the light goes out.
When thunder strikes it, the thunder disappears.
...
More immortals used their abilities, whether it was wind, rain, thunder and lightning or water, fire and sound waves, all kinds of attacks fell into the courtyard, but none of it fell on Mo Yanliang.
"Yunqing, when did this courtyard have such powerful formation set up?"
Among all the immortals, Xie Baichen was definitely one of the most knowledgeable. He immediately noticed that there was a powerful formation in the courtyard. But he didn't even notice when the formation was set up... The person who set up the formation was really amazing.
Mo Yanliang ignored Xie Baichen. His gaze were fixed on the Phoenix Immortal Lord, thinking about how to deal with this phoenix next.
Since the Phoenix Immortal Lord was the leader of the immortals who came to capture him this time, then he will catch the leader and deal with the Phoenix first.
In the room, Mo Yunqing, whose figure no one could see, constantly making moves to change the formation.
He looked elegant but his movements were extremely fast. It was obvious that he had practiced this moves countless times, which was why he was so skilled.
Mo Yunqing didn't keep looking at Mo Yanliang because he believed that Mo Yanliang could do it.
Because they were the same person, Mo Yanliang and Mo Yunqing don't even need to communicate, they cooperated very well.
Mo Yanliang knew that Mo Yunqing was changing the formation in the room, so even though various attacks were coming down, he did not panic at all. He was still calmly thinking about how to fight the next battle, and had even simulated it in his mind.
Mo Yunqing also knew what Mo Yanliang wanted to do, and within a limited scope, he was willing to provide him with the greatest convenience.
Seeing the situation change, Phoenix Immortal Lord finally couldn't help but speak out: "Enough, all of you stop, let benjun do it."<本君= benjun, means I/ this lord. Self-proclaimed title.>
As the Phoenix Immortal lord spoke, a pair of huge wings spread out behind him.
The pair of flaming phoenix wings looked majestic and imposing.
The Phoenix Immortal lord flapped his flaming wings, flew down from the clouds and the silver spear in his hand aimed directly Mo Yanliang's forehead as he stabbed.
The Phoenix Immortal lord thought that he won't be making a move, at least he shouldn't be the first to make a move. But currently, the attacks from the immortals were absorbed by this strange courtyard, lowering the morale of the immortals. This was not a good sign.
As the commander-in-chief, he must boost the morale of the immortals, bring back this little immortal official who is causing trouble in the immortal realm, and hand him over to the Immortal Emperor for punishment.
Phoenix Immortal lord felt that there was nothing wrong with his action, as he was doing it to protect the Immortal realm.
However, as a master, Xie Baichen couldn't stand it anymore, and there was a rare hint of anger in his words.
"Phoenix Immortal Lord, what is your identity, to be so cruel to a little junior like this?"
Xie Baichen did not hesitate. He swung his sword and attacked before the Phoenix Immortal Lord's silver spear pierced Mo Yanliang.
It would have been fine if Xie Baichen didn't say anything or take any action. The Phoenix Immortal Lord would just pretended not to see him and didn't bother with him. After all, the fact that Xie Baichen followed Mo Yanliang and jumped off the Zhuxian Platform that day was known to almost every immortal in the immortal world.
As one of the four great immortal lords, Phoenix Immortal Lord originally did not want to embarrass Xie Baichen because of their past friendship. But now that he has taken action, Phoenix Immortal Lord can no longer pretending not to see him even if he wants to.
"Immortal Lord Bailing, do you know what you are doing? You are the Immortal Lord of the Immortal Realm, so don't ruin your reputation for a wicked disciple! Or does Immortal Lord Bailing wants to betray the Immortal Emperor and betray my Immortal Realm?"
Every word the Phoenix Immortal Lord said was more serious than the last. This was what Xie Baichen cared about the most. He had always taken it as his responsibility to protect the Immortal Realm. Now that he was directly accused of betrayal, Xie Baichen couldn't even stand up straight.
Mo Yanliang really didn't want to see these two immortal lords arguing about protecting the Immortal realm in front of him.
The immortals have always used this rhetoric when they bled him, and it sounded righteous, but who are they protecting, the Immortal realm or the Immortal Emperor's selfish interests?
"Don't say these bullshit in front of me! Since you want to capture me, let me see what you are capable of."
Mo Yanliang raised his right hand, and the Dragon Roar Sword appeared in his hand.
Seeing that Mo Yanliang was ready for the battle, Phoenix Immortal Lord pushed Xie Baichen away and rushed forward with spear in hand.
As the swords and spears clashed, a crisp sound was heard. Both Mo Yanliang and Phoenix Immortal Lord were extremely fast, and within a blink of an eye, they had fought for dozens of rounds.
Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Xie Baichen could only watch the fight from the side.
He stared at the battle situation intently, thinking that if Mo Yanliang was in danger, he would rescue him as soon as possible.
The fight between Mo Yanliang and Phoenix Immortal Lord had a huge impact. The entire courtyard was shaking, and deep pits were constantly created on the ground due to the aftermath of the fight. Mo Yanliang thought about the formation that Mo Yunqing had painstakingly set up in the courtyard, so he then deliberately guided the fight and led the Phoenix Immortal Lord higher and higher into the air.
Phoenix Immortal Lord also acquiesced to Mo Yanliang's behavior.
The Phoenix Immortal Lord's true form was a phoenix, and fighting in the air was more beneficial for him.
Although it was not right to take advantage of a junior, the Phoenix Immortal Lord wanted to end the battle quickly.
The two fought in mid-air, and the Phoenix Immortal Lord flapped his wings, fanning out a huge fire dragon that rushed straight towards Mo Yanliang, as if it wanted to devour him.
The Dragon Roar Sword hovered in front of Mo Yanliang. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and a huge barrier blocked the charging fire dragon.
After defending, Mo Yanliang quickly made various complex movements with his hands. As his hands moved, all the leaves around him were densely arranged, as if they were in a queue. Under the guidance of Mo Yanliang's hands again, they were like sharp swords, all shooting towards the Phoenix Immortal Lord.
The Phoenix Immortal Lord did not defend himself. He flapped his wings and countless fireballs attacked Mo Yanliang at the same time.
When the two collided, a huge explosion was heard in the sky.
In this wave, neither side gained advantage.
Mo Yanliang's strength was beyond Phoenix Immortal Lord's expectations. He was confident that he could defeat Mo Yanliang, but it would take a lot of time. If it took so much time to capture such a small immortal official, it would be a disgrace to his reputation as an immortal. So he shouted sternly: "Twelve immortal officials, form a formation!"
Following the Phoenix Immortal Lord's shout, twelve immortals stepped out from among the heavenly soldiers and generals, each holding an immortal binding chain in their hands.
The twelve tmmortal officials used a strange movement and cooperated with the Phoenix Immortal Lord to trap Mo Yanliang in the center of the chain.
"Mo Yunqing, you do have some abilities. It seems that you were just pretending in the immortal realm before. But this is the end. You can't get out of this Immortal Locking Formation."
Mo Yanliang really didn't understand why the Phoenix Immortal Lord always had to tell him that he was not good enough. What was the point of attacking him with words?
If he really couldn't get out of the Immortal Locking Formation, he would have nothing to say, but right now, he still had to try.
These twelve chains were intertwined according to a certain pattern, and Mo Yanliang's body shuttled through them according to this pattern. He was trying to break the formation.
Phoenix Immortal Lord and the twelve immortal officials would certainly not let Mo Yanliang escape so easily.
The twelve immortal officials kept changing their formations as Mo Yanliang moved, and the Phoenix Immortal Lord even raised his spear and stabbed towards Mo Yanliang.
In order to break the formation, Mo Yanliang had to take the blow from the Phoenix Immortal Lord, but he also found a breakthrough and he climbed above the Immortal Locking Formation.
Mo Yanliang's blue clothes were stained with blood, his feet standing on the chain formation, and the Dragon Roar Sword was held in his hand. At this moment, he seemed not only unaffected by the injury, but instead seemed more eager to fight.
Phoenix Immortal Lord was also standing on the chain array, his silver spear still stained with Mo Yanliang's blood. He should have been the more high-spirited party, but at this moment, Phoenix Immortal Lord had a premonition of danger. He had encountered this premonition many times in his previous life as an immortal, and it had helped him escape danger many times.
But Phoenix Immortal Lord couldn't understand why he would have such a premonition of danger when facing a little immortal like Mo Yanliang.
"Ahhhhhhhh! That broken spear made me so mad! How dare he steal your blood to drink? I don't even have enough to drink, how dare he! "
The spirit of the Dragon Roar Sword let out an angry roar in his baby voice, like a baby whose milk powder had been stolen, he was extremely manic.
There was no need for Mo Yanliang to command it. The Dragon Roar Sword directly chased after the Phoenix Immortal Lord's spear to duel.
The Phoenix Immortal Lord didn't even have time to react before the spear had already left his hand.
Originally, in terms of grade, the Dragon Roar Sword was not as good as the Phoenix Immortal Lord's spear. However, the Dragon Roar Sword drank so much of Mo Yanliang's blood and gave birth to a sword spirit. At this moment, it entered a violent state, and the Phoenix Immortal Lord's spear was actually pressed down and beaten by the Dragon Roar Sword.
Mo Yanliang also took this opportunity, using his own blood as a medium to bring out a powerful force, and swung his fist directly at the Phoenix Immortal Lord.
This was the most direct, violent, and least skillful move, and the Phoenix Immortal Lord actually found himself unable to dodge it.
With the help of his own divine blood, Mo Yanliang smashed the Phoenix Immortal Lord to the ground.
This sudden change happened in an instant that the soldiers and generals didn't even react. The Phoenix Immortal Lord, who always had excellent fighting power, was actually defeated by Mo Yanliang. What's even more terrifying was that at this moment Mo Yanliang grabbed the wings behind the Phoenix Immortal Lord with both hands. He ignored the flames on the phoenix's wings and the burns on his hands, and he fiercely tore the Phoenix Immortal King's wings apart.
"What are you doing? Stop it right now! Stop it!"
The Phoenix Immortal Lord's voice changed because of shock, because he guessed something terrible.
And things developed just as Phoenix Immortal Lord had guessed.
Mo Yanliang removed the wings of the Phoenix Immortal Lord with his bare hands.
When Mo Yanliang threw the pair of majestic phoenix wings on the ground, blood had already flowed all over the ground. It was hard to tell whether it was the blood from the Phoenix Immortal Lord's broken wings or the blood from Mo Yanliang's burned hands...
