Following behind him was A Cui, who was holding a sapphire inlaid dagger with faint runes flowing on its surface. It was the “Spellbreaking Dagger,” a secret creation of the Information Tower, specially designed to penetrate a cultivator’s protective spiritual power.
“Nan Batian!” Hu Mazi was both surprised and happy, and tried to get up.
“I am the Lord of the Six Temples. Those who are not related to me, please leave here, or don’t blame me if I am impolite.”
After seeing Nan Batian and A Cui arrive, the Sixth Palace Master, fearing that it would disrupt his plan to eliminate David, used the power of the temple to threaten them.
“The Sixth Palace Master is a nobody! He dares to touch Lord Chen, not even the Heavenly Monarch himself can stop him!”
After Nan Batian finished speaking, he swung his heavy ax with incredible force towards the Sixth Palace Master, the gust of wind from the ax sending debris flying everywhere.
“Your temple is acting recklessly on Fifth Heaven, do you really think us wild cultivators are easy to bully?”
Now that his inner shackles were removed, his spiritual energy flowed more smoothly than before. Even though he was only at the peak of the seventh rank of Earth Deity, he had faintly released the strength of the eighth rank of Earth Deity with his indomitable and brave spirit.
“Hmph, a trash at the seventh rank of Earth Immortal dares to interfere in the affairs of the Divine Temple?”
The Sixth Palace Master sneered. As the God Locking Claw clashed with the heavy axe, he suddenly spun, and the tip of the claw slid down along the ridge of the sword, aiming straight for Nan Batian’s wrist.
This sudden change in tactics was swift and merciless. Nan Batian was caught off guard and could only turn to the side, his claws scratched Nan Batian’s arm and left a trail of blood.
“Brother Batian!”
With a shout, A Cui Jiao’s magic breaking dagger turned into a beam of blue light, piercing straight towards the Sixth Palace Master’s ribs.
Even though his cultivation level had dropped to only the fifth rank of Earth Deity, his movements were agile, and the magic breaking rune on his dagger could always tear through the Sixth Palace Master’s protective spiritual power at critical moments, creating breathing space for Nan Batian.
In an instant, the men started fighting in the street.
Nan Batian’s heavy ax swung in a wide, sweeping motion, protecting David and Hu Mazi;
Ah Cui’s dagger moved erratically, specifically targeting the Sixth Palace Master’s weakness;
David and Hu Mazi took advantage of the opportunity to recover and occasionally launched surprise attacks.
However, the Sixth Palace Master’s strength was truly too great. His spiritual power as a level eight Earth Immortal was like a bottomless abyss. His God Locking Claw was sometimes as fierce as thunder and sometimes as gentle as a poisonous snake, gradually gaining absolute superiority.
“clang!”
Nan Batian’s heavy ax was hit by the claw shadow, and a gap instantly appeared on the blade. He groaned and was forced to step back, his chest covered in blood.
Seeing this, Ah Cui hurriedly tried to protect herself, but the Sixth Palace Master seized the opportunity and kicked her in the stomach, causing her to stagger and fall into Nan Batian’s arms.
“Two trashes, how dare you block my way?”
The Sixth Palace Master grinned evilly, turned around and lunged at David again, “Today I will show you the consequences of provoking the Temple!”
