It was not that Lu Zhou did not think of using an explosive method to break the formation, but with his strength as a Great Venerable Master, he knew it would not be enough.
He did not know what could create such a deep gully, but the ancient formations were already shaken.
This was extremely dangerous

to everyone in the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Everyone rushed over.

Lu Zhou could feel everyone had gotten stronger again.

“Master.”

Yu Shangrong hovered in the air.
He was somewhat surprised when he saw the scene in front of him.

Lu Zhou looked at Yu Shangrong from the corners of his eyes.
It did not take long for him to sense a hint of strangeness.
It was not because their master-disciple bond had weakened, but because Yu Shangrong seemed to have matured.

How could Yu Shangrong mature without experiencing the vicissitudes of life? How could he accumulate experience if he had not been sculpted by time?

Yu Zhenghai and Qin Naihe appeared on the left.
The two of them frowned when they saw the deep gully before they bowed at Lu Zhou.

Just like Yu Shangrong, time had left traces on their faces.

Lu Zhou felt a little regretful.
He regretted letting them cultivate under the effect of the Pillar of Impermanence.
They were cultivators who possessed the Great Void Seed; even without the Pillar of Impermanence, it was only a matter of time before they became supreme beings.
However, in order to go to

the Great Void, he had to use all kinds of methods to let them grow stronger, which resulted in them losing many years of their lives.

“Pavilion Master.”

“Master?”

Little Yuan’er and Conch were the last ones to arrive.

The two girls did not change much.
The ancient formations were helpless against their long lifespan.

Lu Zhou dismissed his thoughts.
He did not have time to inquire about their cultivation now.
He said in a clear voice, “Let’s go.”

At the same time, divine power surged out of Lu Zhou’s hand.

“Let’s go!” Yu Zhenghai called.

Everyone stepped on the lit path to leave the ancient formations.

Yu Zhenghai looked to the left and said, “Second Junior Brother, bring everyone away.”

Yu Shangrong nodded.
“Alright.”

Yu Shangrong took the lead, and everyone followed closely behind.

“Why aren’t you leaving?” Lu Zhou frowned.

“Master, you go first.
I’l bring up the rear,” Yu Zhenghai said.

“The ancient formations are very dangerous.
It’s not safe for you to stay.”

“Master, I’m from the Wugi clan.
I’ve died many times.
I don’t care about one more death!”

“Shut up!” Lu Zhou said grimly.
The word ‘death’ was too heavy even if Yu Zhenghai was from the Wugi clan.
He had died three times, and the final time, he had returned to his youth when he was resurrected.
He was lucky he was even resurrected.

Lu Zhou only had two words for Yu Zhenghai: live well.

Yu Zhenghai paused for a moment before saying, “Okay.”

Then, Yu Zhenghai turned around and followed the others.

‘When everyone vanished from sight, Lu Zhou opened his hand.

Energy surged violently in the air.
It was as though the sky was falling and the ground was splitting.
It was like..
the end of the world.

“Boundless divine power!”

Under the lead of Yu Shangrong and Qin Naihe, everyone from the Evil Sky Pavilion safely left the ancient formations.

A gentle breeze blew past, and it felt like the sky and earth had become wider in an instant.

Everyone exclaimed in shock when they saw the scene around them.
They hovered above a valley.
There was a seemingly bottomless and growing rift in the valley that seemed endless.

Gravel and soil kept tumbling into the rift.
Even fierce beasts who could not fly or were too slow fell into the right.
There was no echo, apart from when they hit the cliff.

“What’s going on?”

They were puzzled and shocked.

At this moment, Yu Zhenghai rushed out.
He frowned when he saw the scene in front of him.

Qin Naihe said, “The land is splitting.”

“Why is it like this? Didn’t it split 100,000 years ago? Why is it splitting again?” Mingshi Yin asked.

Qin Naihe said, “The land has always been splitting.
It’s just that the splitting from 100,000 years ago was on too large a scale.
Over the past 100,000 years, the land has been splitting.
Do you remember the rift we encountered during our journey to Ji Ming? That’s a result of the land splitting as well.”

Everyone recalled that the place was also where they had seen Princess Mulberry’s white cranes.
They looked up at the fog-covered sky.

“Is the end of the world coming?”

Although they were cultivators with great strength whom ordinary people could not compare to, they were still powerless face with the end of the world.

Kong Wen and his brothers busied themselves, flying back and forth and studying their surroundings.
They only returned after a long time.

“Don’t worry.
The rift looks big and deep, but in fact, it’s nothing compared to the size of the Unknown Land.
Its speed of growth is also slowing down,” Kong Wen said reassuringly.

Everyone sighed in relief when they heard this.

“According to historical records, 100,000 years ago, after the land split, people were plunged into misery and despair.
The oceans rose, the sky fell, and the land split.
It was many times more terrible than this…”

Yu Zhenghai raised his head and looked at the Pillar of Destruction.
“There’s no movement at the pillar.”

“If there’s a problem there, those from the Great Void will be the more anxious,” Kong Wen said.

At this moment, Jiang Dongshan suddenly said, “Deal with the fierce beasts!”

Whoosh!

Ahuge number of fierce beasts appeared on both sides of the rift.
There were also all kinds of flying beasts in the air looking at the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion.

On the left side of the Pillar of Destruction, a huge boulder cracked open, revealing a deformed and extremely tall human.
He stared at them with a dark light in his eyes.

“Who’s that?” Yu Zhenghai hurriedly drew his Jasper Saber.
Since his master was not here, as the Eldest Senior Brother, it was his responsibility to protect everyone.

Jiang Dongshan said, ‘I’ll deal with him.
He’s the… Dark Prince.”

“The Dark Prince? The zombie king?!” Kong Wen exclaimed.

“That’s right,” Jiang Dongshan said before he flew forward, “The Dark Prince was once the supreme beast tamer in the Great Void.
Later, because he coveted Emperor Shangzhang’s beautiful concubine, he was mutilated before he was sent to be imprisoned in the north.”

Everyone was stunned.

Mingshi Yin looked at Jiang Dongshan and said, “You know quite a lot for someone from the golden lotus domain.”

“If I told you the golden lotus domain has superior cultivation paths between heaven and earth, would you believe me?”

Mingshi Yin and the others were stunned.

Jiang Dongshan continued to say, “In any case, now’s not the time to discuss this.
The Dark Prince is comparable to a Saint.
I’ll deal with him.”

As soon as Jiang Dongshan’s voice fell, the Dark Prince let out a strange cry.

The flying beasts in the air began to flap their wings in a synchronized manner.

Rocks and pebbles shot toward the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion immediately.

Everyone activated their protective energies and used energy seals to block the flying rocks.

More and more fierce beasts appeared, covering the air and the ground.

At this time, it was not wise to rush out alone.
As soon as one of them broke the rank, the fierce beasts would definitely attack the lone person.

“Tl do it! Cover me!”

Whoosh!

Hua Yuexing rose higher into the sky.

Hua Wudao stepped on the Square Box and rose into the sky as well.
As the Square Box grew bigger, the Six Compatible Seals appeared, forming a temporary indestructible space.

Hua Yuexing released the string of her bow, launching an onslaught of arrows at the fierce beasts.
In just a few breaths, the energy arrows that looked like shooting stars had taken down tens of thousands of weak fierce beasts.

Alas, there were too many of them, and there were also the powerful fierce beasts that were eyeing them.

‘Mingshi Yin asked with a hint of urgency, “Jiang Dongshan, can you do it or not?”

“Buy me some time,” Jiang Dongshan said as he shot out.

“Cover him!” Yu Zhenghai brandished the Jasper Saber as a wave of energy sabers swept across the sky on the left side.

Yu Shangrong silently drew his Longevity Sword.
Then, a wall of energy words rose up on the right side of the sky.

Jiang Dongshan flew out between the wave of energy sabers and the wall of energy swords.

Qin Naihe flew around, attacking from the left and right to protect Jiang Dongshan.

“Senior brother, you’ve made a breakthrough,” Yu Shangrong said with a smile.

“Likewise.”

The duo smiled.

Mingshi Yin rode on Qiong Qias he flew around, looking for an opportunity to strike.
At the same time, he glanced in the direction of the ancient formations as he said anxiously, “Master, why aren’t you out yet?”

“The ancient formations have been affected by the splitting of the earth.
He won’t be coming out so soon.
Don’t worry.
The Pavilion Master has amazing means; the ancient formations won’t be able to trap him,” Lu Li said.

“Give me a hand!” Hua Wudao shouted.

With that, the people from the Evil Sky Pavilion began to attack the fierce beasts from both sides.

Carcasses were piled on both sides of the cliff in just an instant.
Some of it fell into the rift.
Blood flowed down the rift like a waterfall.

“Watch out! There’s a beast king!”

Ahuge winged beast rushed down from above.
Its 1,000-feet-long body was black, and its claws glinted coldly.

“Leave it to me!” Mingshi Yin leaped off Qiong Qi’s back and shot out like an arrow, tearing through the sky as the Separation Hook gleamed coldly in his hand.

Mingshi Yin left afterimages in his wake as he flew past the winged beast’s wing at a strange angle.

Whoosh!

The Separation Hook severed the huge winged beast’s wings.

When Mingshi Yin came to a stop, he turned back to take a look with a cold smile on his face.
“Too weak.”

“Mr.
Fourth is the best!”

Everyone gave Mingshi Yin a thumbs-up.

None of them thought about life hearts at this moment.
They were all focused on solving the problem in front of them.

Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong focused on escorting Jiang Dongshan.

At this moment, Jiang Dongshan stopped and hovered in the air.
He brought out rusty red talismans from his pocket.
Upon closer inspection, the talismans were drenched in blood.
Then, he joined his palms together, holding the talismans between his palms before he shot forward.

“Cover me,” Jiang Dongshan shouted.

“Just go!” Qin Naihe roared before he manifested his avatar.

The avatar’s lotus sent the fierce beasts flying immediately.

At the same time, Yu Shangrong and Yu Zhenghai continued to attack as they flew around.

The three top experts of the Evil Sky Pavilion fought fiercely.

At this time, the Dark Prince, dressed in tattered clothes, raised his head.
The dark light in his eyes grew brighter; they were a stark contrast to his pale and disfigured face.
His mouth opened and closed as he made strange noises.

Whoosh!

Allofa sudden, the Dark Prince spat out a ray of black light.

“No!”

Jiang Dongshan, who was holding the talismans tightly with both hands, was about to be hit when a figure flashed in front of him, swinging his sword horizontally when he arrived.

Bang!

The person who blocked the ray of light was none other than Yu Shangrong, the Sword Devil.
He flew back with a calm expression on his face when the ray of light hit the sword.
He glanced at the Longevity Sword and saw a dent on its blade.
He tightened his grip, causing the sword to thrum.
After a moment,

the red runes shot out, restoring the blade before dissipating.
He frowned when he saw the red runes were gone.
He was reminded of Si Wuya, his confident and arrogant junior brother who had spared no efforts helping him with the Longevity Sword.

Yu Shangrong suddenly flew up.

“Second Junior Brother, what are you doing?” Yu Zhenghai asked before he said, “I need you to preserve your strength!”

Yu Shangrong said tonelessly, “The sword is here, and I’m here.”

Yu Shangrong’s long robe fluttered in the wind as the Longevity Sword flew out.

Countless energy swords converged and tore through the sky toward the Dark Prince.

At the same time, the thirteen golden leaves hidden among the energy sword mercilessly slashed at the Dark Prince’s body.

Each time a golden leaf pierced the Dark Prince’s body, he would grunt and take three steps back.
After the thirteen leaves pierced him, he had retreated 39 steps.

Subsequently, the energy swords flew back along with the Longevity Sword.

Jiang Dongshan glanced at Yu Shangrong and said, “Thank you.”

Jiang Dongshan no longer dared to waste time.
He held the talismans and rushed up the Dark Prince who was pushed back.
Then, he turned the talisman into fluorescent powder that fell on the Dark Prince.

“Argh!” The Dark Prince roared.
Fear and nervousness could be seen in its eyes as it roared.

‘When the fluorescent powder landed on the Dark Prince’s body, they turned into a fog of blood energy that shrouded him.

“Blood energy?” Qin Naihe frowned.

The Dark Prince’s body began to tremble.

Yu Shangrong flew over, grabbed Jiang Dongshan’s shadow, and said, “Let’s go.”

Jiang Dongshan tumed around and swatted Yu Shangrong’s hand away before he pushed his hand out.

Yu Shangrong’s movement was as light as a swallow as he flew back, avoiding the attack.

“Hm?”

Jiang Dongshan said, “Thank you for helping me, but the Dark Prince is no longer a threat.”

“What do you mean?”

The Dark Prince’s body was completely shrouded in blood energy at this moment.
In fact, more and more blood energy seemed to be converging on him.

Jiang Dongshan said, ‘I’ve agreed to bring Pavilion Master Lu to Zhixu’s Pillar of Destruction in exchange for the Dark Prince.
Now, he’s under my control.”

“It’s under your control?”

“Yes.
I knew you’d find it hard to believe,” Jiang Dongshan said.
Then, he looked at the Dark Prince and called out, “Dark Prince.”

The Dark Prince’s eyes shone.
Then, he rushed out toward Yu Shangrong with agile movements.
His hands became a blur when he moved them.

Yu Shangrong flashed, retreating 1,000 feet.

Unexpectedly, the Dark Prince kept up with Yu Shangrong and punched Yu Shangrong’s heart.

Bang!

Yu Shangrong’s golden avatar appeared and merged with him, blocking the heavy punch.

The punch had been deadly.
Yu Shangrong could see the space rippling in the wake of the Dark Prince’s fist earlier.
He frowned as he retreated another 1,000 feet.
At the same time, his avatar disappeared.

Jiang Dongshan said, ‘I’m sorry.
The Dark Prince lacks control over his strength.
When he was alive, he was the supreme beast tamer, after all.
After he died, his strength had been greatly reduced, but he still has the strength of a Great Dao Saint.
It’s only normal that you’re no match for him.”

Yu Shangrong, Yu Zhenghai, and Qin Naihe could clearly sense the change in Jiang Dongshan’s speech and attitude.

Yu Zhenghai asked, “Were you using us?”

Jiang Dongshan said, “Mr.
First, you misunderstand me.
Dark Prince, recall the fierce beasts!”

The Dark Prince raised his head and roared.

With that, the fierce beasts retreated immediately, greatly reducing the pressure on the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion.

Yu Zhenghai nodded and said, “That’s good.”

Then, Jiang Dongshan looked in the direction of the ancient formations and said, “Pavilion Master Lu won’t be able to come out any time soon.
Since I just took control of the Dark Prince, why don’t you help me test out his strength?”

“You can test it yourself,” Yu Zhenghai said in a deep voice.

“Don’t misunderstand me.
I’ve known everyone for so long now.
I have no ill intentions.
I respect both Mr.
First and Mr.
Second.
Both of you love sparring and fighting with experts.
How can you miss such a good opportunity?” Jiang Dongshan said.

Qin Naihe interjected, “Now’s not the time to be testing the Dark Prince’s strength.
The land has split, causing a great commotion.
The silver-armored guards will surely return.
We should work together and solve the problem in front of us first.”

“The problem has been solved,” Jiang Dongshan said confidently as he spread his arms, “Just three moves.
After that, I’ll leave immediately.”

The fierce beasts completely retreated collectively.

The Dark Prince took a step forward.
His gaze was locked on Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, and Qin Naihe..
