"Xiao Yan!"
Hearing Xiao Yan's voice, everyone turned their gazes toward him.
Those Dou Zun experts from the Hall of Souls originally wanted to step in and stop them, but unfortunately, their hearts were willing while their strength was lacking.
When they heard Xiao Yan shout "retreat", both Feng Zun Zhe and Tie Jian Zun Zhe couldn't help but show a flash of delight on their faces.
They succeeded!
Xiao Yan nodded slightly toward the crowd, then instructed Zi Yan, "Zi Yan, have the ant tide retreat."
"Mm." Zi Yan nodded.
As Xiao Yan and Zi Yan arrived at the breach in the spatial barrier, that sky-darkening ant tide also began to retreat rapidly.
Within the valley, the battle gradually came to a halt.
Both sides' forces tacitly separated, no longer entangling in combat. Wei Yang, Xian'er, and Ah Da stood at the very front. In Ah Da's hand, he still carried a lifeless corpse — it was that Old Ghost Zhai Xing.
Looking again toward the Hall of Souls's side, it was an utterly miserable sight. Almost everyone was seriously injured, even the Black and White Tian Zuns were no exception.
Among them, the one who looked the worst was White Tian Zun — covered in blood, his exposed skin showing large patches of raw flesh. Judging from the wounds, it looked as if chunks of flesh had been forcibly torn off his body.
Blood kept dripping down, blood-soaked and gruesome. Those wounds were all self-inflicted by White Tian Zun to remove the poisoned flesh from his body.
Black Tian Zun's situation was slightly better, but only relatively speaking. His robe was in tatters, many parts of his body were scorched, and even his beard and eyebrows were half burned away, leaving him looking extremely wretched.
At this moment, the two gathered together, watching helplessly as Wei Yang's group began to withdraw — yet none of them showed signs of trying to stop them. Instead, they secretly let out a breath of relief.
They were finally leaving. If they didn't, they might end up following in that old ghost's footsteps.
"Xian'er, take them and leave first. Don't stop once you're out — head straight for the Holy Pill City." Wei Yang slightly turned his head, sending a voice transmission to Xian'er, "Ah Da and I will stay behind to cover the retreat."
"Alright, you two be careful." Xian'er didn't say much more. She simply gave a soft warning, then turned and swiftly led Xiao Yan and the others away.
Very soon, they left the valley and quickly went far away.
Wei Yang and Ah Da, under the somewhat stifled yet wary gazes of the Hall of Souls members, slowly backed toward the exit of the barrier. But just as the Hall of Souls members thought they were about to leave as well, Wei Yang suddenly stopped at the exit.
"Wei Yang, what do you want now?" Seeing this, Black Tian Zun's heart tightened as he frowned. The Dou Zun experts of the Hall of Souls also tensed up inwardly.
At this point, their feelings were conflicted — they desperately wanted this fiend to leave, yet they also wished he'd delay just a bit longer, long enough for their reinforcements to arrive.
Although Yao Chen had been rescued, if they could keep Wei Yang here that would be perfect. After all, this man was far more valuable than Yao Chen.
"Your reinforcements should be arriving soon, right?" Wei Yang stood at the edge of the space barrier, right at the opened exit, smiling as he asked.
"Correct." White Tian Zun directly nodded in acknowledgment.
"I think I can already faintly sense several rather powerful auras rapidly approaching this place."
Wei Yang let out a soft laugh, seemingly a little regretful, "They sure came fast."
Then, he glanced at Black Tian Zun. "Do you know why I've been playing with you this whole time? Did you really think I was that weak, just so-so?"
Black Tian Zun's eyelids twitched, his expression turning gloomy.
That tone...
Wei Yang smiled slightly. From his sleeve, his left hand extended outward — in his palm, ten small black suns slowly revolved.
Ten suns connected together, releasing a terrifying aura that caused the surrounding space to collapse.
The Dou Zun experts of the Hall of Souls immediately had their pupils constrict. From that, they sensed an extremely dangerous power.
"Because I've been secretly holding back a big move this whole time," Wei Yang said softly. "After holding it in for so long, I suppose it's time to give you all a little surprise."
"Wei Yang, what are you trying to do?" Hearing that, both Black and White Tian Zuns' scalps went numb as they shouted.
"Of course, to leave you all a little gift." Wei Yang grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. Then, his gaze suddenly lifted toward the sky above the grand hall.
There, the void twisted violently, rapidly forming into a spatial passage. From within that spatial passage, several terrifying auras faintly spread out, approaching at an alarming speed.
"They're here!" Wei Yang raised an eyebrow.
Judging from the strength of those auras, the weakest among them was at least at the peak Dou Zun level. However, there wasn't the slightest hint of tension in his heart. Because Xiao Yan and the others had already retreated safely.
"Attack! Stop him!" Black Tian Zun seemed to realize something, and an uneasy thump hit his chest. He immediately roared out loud.
Boom!
Several Hall of Souls Dou Zun instantly surged with Dou Qi, charging straight toward Wei Yang.
"Enjoy yourselves." Wei Yang let out a light laugh, his left hand clutching the ten rotating black suns as he suddenly hurled them toward the middle of the valley, right above the grand hall — aiming straight at that twisting spatial passage.
"Not good!" The expressions of several Hall of Souls Dou Zun changed drastically. Without a second thought, they all launched attacks one after another, frantically blasting toward those ten black suns.
However—
Buzz buzz buzz~
The ten black suns began spinning rapidly after leaving his hand, their size expanding at an astonishing rate. The void around them directly crumbled into dust during the process.
In the blink of an eye, they transformed into a massive black ring of flame, spinning wildly. The attacks from Black and White Tian Zuns and the others struck that rapidly rotating black flame ring but were instantly shredded apart — unable to stop it at all.
Ten Sun Destruction!
Wooooo~
The black ring of fire, carrying power capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, slammed violently toward that twisting spatial passage.
"No!"
The Black and White Tian Zuns' hairs stood on end, eyes wide with rage and horror. A chill surged up from the depths of their hearts.
Time seemed to slow at that instant.
The Hall of Souls's Dou Zun experts stared in terror as the spatial passage began to collapse bit by bit.
"Bastard!" From within the passage, several furious roars echoed faintly.
"Hahaha! Are you satisfied with this little gift? No need to thank me. That's all for today — I'll be leaving first. Farewell! Hahaha!" Wei Yang laughed heartily, then stepped forward with Ah Da, exiting through the spatial barrier.
Immediately after, Ah Da waved his hand casually, and the opening began to close rapidly. At the very moment the breach sealed shut, they could faintly see dazzling black light blooming within the barrier, bright and magnificent.
Along with it, raging black flames and lightning erupted in an instant.
"Ah~" From within the collapsing spatial passage came shrill screams of agony.
"Wei Yang~!"
All of it was completely sealed off as the barrier closed.
"Go!" Wei Yang and Ah Da didn't stay for even a heartbeat. The instant they emerged, they shot away at full speed, darting madly into the distance. Behind them, the spatial barrier that covered the entire valley was like a slightly distorted transparent bowl turned upside down.
At this moment, it looked as though a black sun — or perhaps a supernova — exploded within it with a deafening boom. Without a sound, endless black radiance pierced through the transparent bowl, bursting outward.
Countless cracks spread across the surface of the entire spatial barrier in an instant. Then, with a muffled pop, the transparent barrier reached its limit and shattered completely.
At the same time, a massive black flame mushroom cloud rose slowly from the valley, soaring straight into the sky. Amid the raging black flames and lightning, the searing heat within was so intense that everything inside evaporated and turned to gas.
In the instant that endless black light bloomed, all of the Hall of Souls's Dou Zun that towering black palace, and even the surrounding space itself were visibly melting away.
Even Black and White Tian Zuns vanished without a sound — in that single instant, they were reduced completely to ashes, not even dust remaining. Everything, within that violent explosion, ceased to exist.
In that instant, heaven and earth fell silent.
Like the sound of great silence, where all is still.
Then—
Buzz~
A vast shockwave of energy suddenly spread from the center of the mushroom cloud, obliterating everything in its path like a crushing tide — even space itself. The slopes, rocks, soil, and trees around the valley were all reduced to dust, flattened completely.
Then—
Rumble rumble rumble~
A deafening explosion finally followed that terrifying energy wave, arriving moments later.
