Boom—
Brilliant golden light, accompanied by a piercing roar, surged forward.
It was an attack launched by Baili Xukong.
This was no ordinary attack — it was a Triple Stage Divine Restriction.
Zi Ling casually swung her sword, seemingly carrying no imposing aura whatsoever.
But immediately after, a piercing boom echoed from the distance.
Looking closely, the surging golden light had already been cleaved in two by crimson sword energy, scattering outward.
However, Baili Xukong's assault was far from over. Soon, tens of thousands of golden beasts roared to life, closing in from every direction in a pincer formation.
Yet Zi Ling still made no extraneous movements. She casually swung her sword once more, and the sword energy swept across all directions.
Those beasts perished in an instant.
Baili Xukong's attacks came in wave after wave, but Zi Ling handled every single one with ease.
Chu Feng even noticed that Baili Xukong's current combat power wasn't entirely his own ability.
Once Zi Ling revealed her cultivation as a Sixth Stage Heavenly Deity, the members of the Prison Sect no longer blindly besieged her.
Instead, they all retreated to a distance, channeling the power of the Prison Infants to enhance Baili Xukong's combat strength.
So the current Baili Xukong was also bolstered by the power of a formation.
And not an ordinary formation at that — it drew upon the power of countless Prison Infants.
"Whoa, Chu Feng, your wife is way too fierce. There's no need for me or Miss Yu'er to lift a finger at all."
Fei watched with his jaw hanging open.
Everyone had a sense of admiration for the strong. As a man, Fei couldn't help but feel genuine awe when witnessing a powerful woman.
"Would it even make a difference if we did?"
After saying this, Little Yu'er turned to Chu Feng. "Big Brother, Sister Zi Ling is so strong."
"Indeed."
Chu Feng nodded.
With his current cultivation, Chu Feng generally wouldn't be able to see the details of a battle between Sixth Stage Heavenly Deities clearly.
But because Zi Ling's attacks were not fast, combined with that powerful sword energy.
Chu Feng was able to vaguely make it out.
What Zi Ling was wielding was not a simple martial skill, but rather an extremely profound sword technique.
It was a sword technique that integrated Zi Ling's current strength, similar to Chu Feng's bloodline ability, and was undoubtedly related to that blood-red ancient tower.
"Little girl, you do have some skill."
"But do you think my Prison Sect has only me?"
The moment Baili Xukong said this.
The six elders of the neutral faction immediately furrowed their brows.
They all understood that Baili Xukong was telling them to take action.
He simply couldn't say it outright, so he phrased it this way.
They could see that Zi Ling was no pushover, but if six of them joined in, five more Zi Lings wouldn't be enough to put up a fight.
So they couldn't act.
Thus, Cang Li and the others all turned to Ting Yun, their backbone.
And just at that moment, Ting Yun's secret voice transmission entered Cang Li and the others' ears.
"I've already sent a secret voice transmission to Baili Xukong."
"I told him we encountered problems while activating the Prison God's Decree, that Chu Feng seized control of the Prison God's Decree and we suffered a backlash. We are now unable to fight."
"Remember to keep your stories straight."
Upon hearing this, Cang Li and the others were overjoyed. This excuse was absolutely perfect, and it wasn't even really an excuse—after all, Chu Feng had indeed seized control of the Prison God's Decree, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to enter the Sacred Land.
They had simply told a small lie based on the truth.
"Baili Xukong seems rather unhappy."
Cang Li looked toward Baili Xukong once more and noticed that his expression had grown even more irate.
That was naturally because they refused to join the fight.
"Well, we're injured—there's nothing he can do about being unhappy. If he dares say something ugly, watch whether I'll smack him or not."
Lie Shan bared his big grin, acting all aggrieved and angry, as if he were truly injured.
"Even if the King of Heaven himself came today, he couldn't take Chu Feng away."
However, just then, a streak of silver light flashed across the sky, and another powerful fighter joined the fray.
