The Temple buzzed as it charged forward with a brilliant might. Even if there was a mountain in front of it, it would likely be smashed to pieces.
Compared to the massive palace, Fu Yu’s figure seemed incredibly small, but the Demon Saint’s aura was even higher than the sky.
She stretched out her jade-like hand and grasped the air in front of her. A five colored bow with a dragon and phoenix carved on it appeared in her hand, and with a gentle twist of her other hand, she pulled the bowstring open and placed an arrow on it.
A great crisis suddenly enveloped Yang Xiao and Yang Xue. Even though the two of them had obtained the true teachings of the Passing of Time Great Emperor and had reached a small accomplishment in their cultivation, at this moment, they still felt a sense of suffocation. They could only feel the killing intent and power rushing towards them, causing their minds to tremble uncontrollably.
With Bo Ya’s Mid-Rank Demon King cultivation, if she was prepared, she could even kill a High-Rank Demon King, let alone a Demon Saint like Fu Yu.
In this world, only Great Emperors and Demon Saints of the same level could survive this arrow, below them all will be in vain.
As such, even though the two little brats were hiding inside the Passing of Time Temple, they couldn’t help feeling like they were exposed to a crisis and had no sense of security at all.
By the time the arrow was formed, it had already shot out. The distance was too close, so Fu Yu could not be delayed.
In the blink of an eye, a beam of light shot out from Fu Yu’s hand and shot towards the incoming Temple, colliding with it like a bolt of lightning. With a loud bang, a violent shockwave spread out and spread across the entire battlefield. Countless humans and demons were thrown into disarray, even the Demon Kings had to circulate their energy to resist it, while the Half-Saint and Pseudo Emperors wore solemn expressions.
Fu Yu staggered back a few steps before stabilizing herself. She let out a soft cry of surprise once more, as she looked around, she saw that the giant palace was actually intact, but it had been knocked back by a massive force.
With a series of cracking sounds, the light curtain that had been wrapped around the Passing of Time Temple suddenly cracked and shattered before it could stabilize.
Yang Xiao and Yang Xue's face, which was already pale, became even paler as they began to bleed.
This light curtain was the defences of the Passing of Time Temple itself. Although Yang Xiao and Yang Xue’s strength was insufficient and they were unable to display its full strength, it was still not something that could be easily broken. This could be seen from the fact that the light curtain was still intact after the previous two collisions.
However, under the attack of Fu Yu’s arrow, the light curtain shattered, showing just how terrifying the power of this arrow was. Without the protection of the Passing of Time Temple, not to mention Yang Xiao and Yang Xue, even a Half-Saint would have been reduced to dust.
The Divine Temple flew backwards like a giant beast, unable to control its movements. Yang Xiao and Yang Xue’s minds were connected to the Divine Temple, so at this moment, they were also in a state of chaos.
However, before they could even catch their breath, a sense of crisis that made them feel like they were about to die once again enveloped them.
In front of the Demon Pagoda, Fu Yu once again drew her Five Colored Bow. The arrow trembled slightly as she pointed it towards the Passing of Time Temple, her crystal-like eyes filled with indifference.
She had arrived in a hurry just now and hadn’t used her full strength in her first arrow, but she was a Demon Saint, so even a casual blow from her had the ability to destroy the heavens and earth. However, the fact that those two humans hadn’t died made her somewhat unable to tolerate it.
Under normal circumstances, she wouldn’t bother attacking these two ants again, but she could see how extraordinary the Divine Temple was, and she is determined to destroy this strange palace. As for the life and death of the Human Race hiding inside, how could she care?
If the previous arrow had only been able to display fifty percent of its strength, then these second arrow should have been at least eighty percent, otherwise she wouldn’t have been able to destroy that palace.
When the arrow shot out, only the brilliance of this arrow remained in the world, causing all the movements on the battlefield to pale in comparison.
Yao Si, who was in charge of the Central Army, could only watch helplessly as this scene unfolded before his eyes. His strength was insufficient, so how could he possibly save people from the Demon Saint? He didn’t know how to explain this to Yang Kai and the Dragon Island.
Yang Xue was Yang Kai’s younger sister, so if she were to die here, Yang Kai would definitely be enraged, but this was only secondary. Yang Xiao was the son of the Dragon Race’s two Great Elders. If he really died here, wouldn’t the Great Elder and Second Elder go crazy? Right now, the entire Star Boundary was relying on these two to stabilize the situation, so if they lost their minds, the entire Star Boundary would be in danger.
The Divine Temple flew up and down as arrow flew towards them. It wouldn’t be long before they arrived.
Just as the arrow was about to hit the temple, a faint golden light suddenly flew out from the temple. This light was formed from tiny grains of sand that flew towards the arrow.
Divine Sand of Time!
In this life or death crisis, Yang Xiao and Yang Xue forced themselves to endure a great deal of discomfort and worked together to activate the power of the endless hourglass. The Divine Sand of Time stored inside the hourglasses was released and the Time Laws spread out, seemingly freezing the entire world.
The power of time corroded the arrow, causing it to slow down and weaken.
A moment later, everything returned to normal.
Although they had activated the power of the Endless Hourglass, Yang Xiao and Yang Xue’s strength was still insufficient. To be able to delay the attack of a Demon Saint for such a short time was already an incredible accomplishment, not to mention that under the corrosion of the power of Time, the power of the arrow was greatly reduced.
But it was still not something the two of them, an arrows who were at the end of their flight, could contend with.
“Little Aunt!” Yang Xiao turned his head and stared at Yang Xue, a smile appearing on his pale face.
Now that he was about to die, being able to be together with his family before he died, there was no regret.
Yang Xue also glanced at him and smiled gently.
On the jade platform of the Divine Temple, the two’s hands were tightly clenched together. Between life and death, there was a great terror, but their expressions were as calm as still water.
A hand suddenly reached out from the void and grabbed the flowing light.
Buzz…
The arrow was like a snake, constantly struggling against the giant hand, but it was unable to break free from its shackles. The giant hand suddenly clenched and the arrow shattered, transforming into a multicolored light that scattered across the world.
When the giant hand grabbed the arrow, countless eyes in the sky and on the ground focused on it, and Fu Yu’s brow wrinkled in disgust.
It wasn’t until the arrow was crushed that a figure appeared in everyone’s field of vision. This figure wasn’t very tall, only having the appearance of an ordinary person, but as it stood there, it seemed to be able to support the heavens and earth, allowing everyone to look up at it.
Yao Si let out a long sigh. Help had finally arrived.
“Father!” Yang Xiao was overjoyed.
Zhu Yan didn’t even turn his head and simply said, “Well done.”
When he received Yao Si message, he immediately rushed over through the Space Spirit Bead, just in time to see Fu Yu shoot her second arrow, causing his scalp to go numb. His calm temperament, which had been cultivated for tens of thousands of years, almost shattered at that moment, because he had no time to stop that arrow.
Fortunately, Yang Xiao and Yang Xue’s use of the endless hourglasses had bought him a moment of time. This moment was the difference between life and death.
Facing a Demon Saint, not only did he not lose his will to fight, he even tried his best to survive. This was not something anyone could do, and Yang Xiao was worthy of Zhu Yan’s pride.
“You dare hurt my son? Die!” Another figure appeared with Zhu Yan. If it wasn’t Fu Zhun, who else could it be? As soon as she appeared, she rushed towards Fu Yu, her eyes filled with murderous intent, her beautiful face covered in frost, causing the temperature of the entire world to plummet.
Dragons had reverse scales, and to Fu Zhun, Yang Xiao was her reverse scale. If anyone dared to hurt her Lin’er, she would fight to the death with them. A cold Law wrapped around her body, and Fu Zhun transformed into a giant crystal dragon, releasing her dragon aura towards Fu Yu.
Beside Fu Yu, Huo Bu and Xue Li appeared out of thin air. Seeing the ice cold aura rush towards them, Huo Bu let out a strange laugh, his round and short body shooting up into the sky towards the ice cold aura.
Boom…
A massive explosion erupted in the sky as Fu Zhun’s attack failed.
With a dragon roar, Zhu Yan also transformed into his true dragon form and fought side by side with Fu Zhun against the three Demon Saints of the Demon Race. Soon, they disappeared into the clouds.
Inside the Divine Temple, Yang Xiao and Yang Xue were like arrows at the end of their flight, they didn’t even have the strength to stand. After escaping from his opponent, Qiong Qi’s figure flickered as he arrived at the Divine Temple. He quickly checked the injuries of the two of them and found that they were just exhausted and didn’t have any hidden injuries, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
As soon as he left, the situation on the battlefield immediately underwent a subtle change. The advantage that the Star Boundary still had was gradually wiped away as the Demon Race organized a counterattack, slowly pushing back the Star army.
Yao Si clenched his fists and issued an order to withdraw!
The purpose of this battle was to destroy the Demon Pagoda, but now that it had failed, there was no point in continuing to fight, it will only increase the number of casualties. Moreover, after so many days of fighting, the people of the various great armies were unable to bear it and could only retreat while they could.
In this battle, more than a million people from the Human and Demon Race had died. After that, the Demon Race spent three days cleaning up the corpses.
Yang Kai didn’t know anything about the battle in the Star Boundary, but at this moment, he was still meditating in the ancient battlefield.
Such a good opportunity was extremely rare. The flow of time in the Ancient Battlefield was different from the outside world, and there was a gap of several dozen times between them, so Yang Kai naturally had to seize this opportunity.
Originally, he had some purpose, but as time passed and his mind became immersed, Yang Kai was completely immersed in it and only felt the pleasure of becoming stronger.
During this time, apart from Bo Ya summoning him out and continuing to devour other continents, he had remained in the Ancient Battlefield of the Mysterious Small World.
Inside the Ancient Battlefield, the range of the two forces would shrink every few months. The two forces that had been entangled with each other for many years, when Yang Kai entered, used his body as a medium to refine and absorb them, becoming Yang Kai’s capital and nutrients.
On top of that, Yang Kai didn’t feel any signs of instability in his foundation as he continued to cultivate like this. The reason for this was because of the flow of time and the benefits he had obtained from the Ancient Battlefield wasn’t something that could be achieved overnight, but rather, it was something that had been tempered bit by bit. Naturally, there were no hidden dangers.
