Hearing those words, Luo Xiu could not help but laugh mockingly. At this very moment, the mocking expression on his face was not concealed in the slightest. There was nothing he could do about it. He truly did not expect Yun Cangsheng to be so naive. Luo Xiu did not know how to respond to those words. Regardless of how calm and indifferent he appeared to be, he still felt a sense of superiority in terms of intelligence when facing the people before him.
"Everyone, do you think that's possible?
Our Qiankun Sect has been taking care of this heavenly treasure for tens of thousands of years. In these years, we have paid a huge price for it. Do you think that you can take it away with just a few words? Do you really think that we are fools? If we are not strong enough, then so be it. But with this old man here, do you think that you can do anything to our Qiankun Sect in terms of strength? Don't use such threatening words, it's meaningless! "
Luo Xiu's words were extremely rude and even a little harsh. This was because from the information he had obtained from Jiu Ying's memories, he didn't have a good impression of these people from the Sky Cloud Pavilion.
Even though he was confident that he could get rid of these people easily, he knew that the battle between his Qiankun Sect and Yun Cangsheng or the Sky Cloud Pavilion had begun when he realized that these people had already locked onto the position of the connate spiritual object. No matter how unwilling he was, the situation was still the same. He had no choice. Unless the Sky Cloud Pavilion gave up on the connate spiritual object, or Luo Xiu compromised, Luo Xiu would feel extremely aggrieved.
Originally, if it was just an Innate Spiritual Item, Luo Xiu would have been willing to hand it over to these guys to prevent more trouble. However, he had no choice. In the entire region of the spiritual stone mine, there were 13 Innate Spiritual Items. Due to the innate spirit design, once one of these Innate Spiritual Items was taken away, the remaining Innate Spiritual Items would definitely not be able to survive. This meant that Luo Xiu would suffer a huge loss because of this. In order to prevent such a problem from occurring, he naturally could not allow these people from the Sky Cloud Pavilion to do as they pleased. Looking at the expressions of these people from the Sky Cloud Pavilion before him, he thought of the information he had obtained from Jiu Ying's memories. At this moment, Luo Xiu had already made up his mind to fight to the death with these guys.
"Haha, how can a connate spiritual object be controlled by others? Stop joking. From what I know, your Qiankun Sect has only occupied this spiritual stone mine for a little more than a thousand years. Now you're telling me that you've been cultivating this connate spiritual object for countless years? What a joke!
Haha, look at you. In the end, we're just going to fight it out! "
Yun Cangsheng looked deeply at Luo Xiu. His expression became extremely serious as he spoke with absolute certainty.
At this moment, if they still believed Luo Xiu, they should just find a piece of tofu and commit suicide. Yun Cangsheng finally understood that Luo Xiu had no intention of negotiating with them. More importantly, Luo Xiu's fearless expression made him even more furious. Therefore, he didn't want to waste any more time with this guy. He waved his hand and signaled for the people around him to get ready to fight.
When Luo Xiu saw this situation, he knew that his previous intention of stalling for time had been seen through by this guy. However, he wasn't surprised. After all, no one who could cultivate to the peak of the Sage Realm was a fool. Even if they were naive, they wouldn't be brainless to this extent. Therefore, he was prepared to defend against the joint attack of these guys.
Although it seemed like he was fighting back and forth with these people, only he knew the real situation. If it wasn't for the special ability of the Delimitation Compass and the powerful effect of the Law of Time, he wouldn't have been able to withstand the joint attack of more than ten people.
At this moment, the offensive and defensive positions were switched. He could only firmly stay in this position. He couldn't use guerilla tactics to fight. Moreover, in order to prevent an overly intense battle, the energy fluctuations would cause changes to the earth veins in the spirit stone mine. He also had to suppress the eruption of energy. Regardless of the situation, Luo Xiu felt a little tricky. At this moment, he was a defender. The only way left for him was to fight this group of people to the death.
"Haha, then there's nothing more to say. In that case, let's fight it out. Please!" Luo Xiu couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth and said in a cold tone.
After saying this, Luo Xiu didn't hesitate. He formed a seal with his hands and an imposing aura instantly soared into the sky. Then, countless amounts of energy gathered around him. The violent energy almost instantly flooded the entire world. Such majestic energy, coupled with an even more violent power, made the protective formation even more stable.
Everyone from the Cloud Sky Pavilion felt their vision blur. By the time they recovered, wild and violent energy filled every inch of the formation, causing Luo Xiu to appear like an extremely powerful god. With the support of the formation's power, the terrifying Spiritual Pressure that Luo Xiu emitted at this moment caused Yun Cangsheng and the others to feel their hearts tremble. This was especially so with the lightning surrounding Luo Xiu's body. His explosive killing intent was not concealed at all, causing everyone to feel an enormous pressure.
How could the people from the Cloud Sky Pavilion not understand when they saw this scene. The real reason why Luo Xiu dared to wait for him in this area was clearly because the formation in front of him could provide him with a powerful strength. At this very moment, the aura around Luo Xiu's body was not the slightest bit concealed. That kind of strength was enough to cause Yun Cangsheng and the others to be unable to resist. Moreover, no one was able to sense that something was wrong. The mysterious and unfathomable lightning that lingered around Luo Xiu's body was more than a level stronger than when he fought with them earlier. What was even more frightening was that the current Luo Xiu actually gave them a frightening feeling that they could not defeat him, as well as an incomparably frightening Spiritual Pressure.
At this moment, the strength that Luo Xiu revealed was omnidirectional. At this moment, he could feel that his entire body was filled with violent energy. It was different from before when he mobilized the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to fight. Now, his body was filled with violent energy that almost obliterated his consciousness.
It should be known that Luo Xiu had the support of the nine-colored soul in his body. Even so, he almost lost himself. Luo Xiu forced himself to calm down. If it were someone else, they would definitely have lost themselves. Even so, Luo Xiu still felt that he had almost lost himself. Under such circumstances, he knew that the reason why he was able to withstand this majestic and violent energy was because of the support of his powerful body from the 18 Arhat Body Refining Technique.
After preparing all this, Luo Xiu looked at the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion opposite him with an unfriendly gaze. At this moment, the ten of them had also taken out their respective weapons. For a moment, sword Qi and saber Qi crisscrossed, and violent energy filled the entire area. An invisible pressure was released. Luo Xiu alone resisted the ten huge gods. The violent energy swept through the surrounding void. The space in this area cracked inch by inch under the powerful collision of everyone's power.
Especially on the side near Luo Xiu, there were spatial cracks everywhere. If it weren't for the fact that Luo Xiu's main cultivation method included some comprehension of the Law of Space, Luo Xiu wouldn't have been able to move around at this moment.
Even so, Luo Xiu now felt the pressure from this world. He knew that this should have something to do with his skyrocketing cultivation. This part of the power was simply not under his control. However, when he saw that the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion didn't say anything, the weapons in their hands were like bolts of lightning. The attacks and various powerful spells fell on the defensive formation, causing violent energy fluctuations, Luo Xiu couldn't care less for the time being. He knew very well that if he couldn't withstand the powerful pressure from the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion, then what he said before would really be empty talk.
In the beginning, Luo Xiu relied on the powerful formation to defuse the attacks of the enemies again and again with ease. However, as time passed, he could clearly feel his own consumption and fell into the same endless cycle as before. However, after what happened last time, he had already expected this. In an instant, he broke countless top-grade spirit stones to replenish the huge energy consumption of the world and recover some for himself.
However, Luo Xiu knew that this was not a long-term solution!
The best way was to defeat these people as soon as possible, and then let both sides settle this matter peacefully. If he really fought to the death with the people of the Cloud Sky Pavilion, it would be an incomparably troublesome matter for him.
Feeling the hostility of the world towards him, Luo Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Even after the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, it was no longer a big problem for him to use the means of a Saint in this world. However, there was one thing that he had to pay attention to, and that was the suppression of overly powerful energy still existed in the world. In particular, at this moment, he had grasped a great power that didn't belong to him at his current level. This made him even more of a thorn in the side of the heavens. At this time, Luo Xiu still hadn't attracted the heavenly tribulation, which was enough to show that the heavens were exceptionally tolerant of him.
Luo Xiu knew that this situation wouldn't last for long, so he didn't hesitate too much. For him at this moment, as long as he could withstand the various attacks from the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion, he could slowly repair the damage to the world for a long time. Luo Xiu himself was very clear that the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion wouldn't give up. This showed how much they wanted these innate treasures.
This situation also made Luo Xiu value the dozen or so innate treasures hidden in the spirit stone mine even more. More importantly, it was still the innate formation. If these people destroyed the formation when they took away the innate treasures, it would be a huge loss. Luo Xiu cared a lot about this innate formation. If he could study it thoroughly, it might be able to advance his cultivation further. This was something that was extremely possible. After the heavenly tribulation earlier, Luo Xiu truly realized that many of his previous ideas had reached a dead end. He no longer had the same obsession with the great dao as before.
Back to the current situation. The battle between Luo Xiu and the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion was still ongoing. However, the two sides were in a stalemate. Neither side could do anything to the other. At this moment, Yun Cangsheng's expression was truly brilliant. They never thought that Luo Xiu, who was originally suppressed by them, would actually be able to fight on par with them now.
Moreover, this time, it was not the kind of skirmish where one would fight while fleeing. Instead, it was a head-on confrontation. The scene in front of them made the people of the Sky Cloud Pavilion feel the power and terror of Luo Xiu. No matter how much energy the formation provided to him, Luo Xiu's performance during this period of time and his different attacking methods were enough to make everyone present take him seriously.
Of course, until now, no matter how dangerous the situation was for Luo Xiu, Luo Xiu had never thought of using the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation. He suspected that once he used the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation in this world, it was very likely that this world would not be able to tolerate him. Moreover, the Tai Qing Palace of the Supreme Purity Palace was not far away from them. If he used the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation and they really suspected him, it would be very troublesome.
Although Luo Xiu could not be sure for the time being whether the Three Pure Ones here were related to the Three Pure Ones he encountered in the previous world, Luo Xiu did not dare to take the risk. The strength of the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation was enough to attract any forces to intervene in this matter. At such a critical moment, he could not afford to complicate matters.
Both sides had fallen into a stalemate. Regardless of whether it was Luo Xiu or the Cloud Sky Pavilion, none of them had any thoughts of stopping first. This was because both sides were very clear that in a life and death situation like this, if either side were to admit defeat first, it would mean that the other side had completely won. Under such circumstances, they couldn't afford to have any wishful thinking. Even if they knew that it might force both sides to perish together, it was impossible for both sides to stop and make peace without a better solution.
After all, this was a situation of life and death, and there was simply no third path to choose from. Therefore, at this very moment, Luo Xiu was really clenching his teeth and persevering. The help that the formation could give him was actually very limited. Even if he borrowed the advantage of the terrain here, the upper limit of the strength that he could erupt with was only so. Unless his cultivation improved a step further, otherwise, when facing the joint attacks of ten existences of the same level, even if these people were to be pulled out individually, they would not be a match for him. However, if the ten of them were to join forces, they would absolutely be able to easily crush the situation. At this moment, Luo Xiu was persevering with great difficulty. Even though the support that the formation gave him allowed him to be in an invincible position for a short period of time, it was still beyond his ability to counterattack!
