On the Dragon-Slaying Platform, I was executed and became Yang Jian's brother-in-law.

The battle intensifies in the footage.

The Primordial Celestial Lord was clearly enraged. How could a dignified sage be forced to such a state by a few juniors and a weapon? If word got out, how could he save face?

"You wretched creature! You're asking for death!!"

Yuanshi Tianzun roared, unleashing his full holy might. He raised the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, ready to unleash a world-destroying divine power, determined to shatter this world and obliterate the great formation along with everyone inside.

At this critical moment, Laozi (the Supreme Lord Lao), who had not yet made a move, finally acted.

The old man riding on the back of the blue ox sighed softly.

The sigh carried a hint of regret for the talents of the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, as well as a touch of indifference to the inevitability of defying the will of Heaven.

"Fellow Daoist, you've passed."

Lao Tzu's voice was calm and even, yet it instantly soothed the violent holy might of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

The next moment, Lao Tzu casually tossed it aside.

A seemingly ordinary prayer mat grows taller in the wind, instantly transforming into a fiery prayer mat that blots out the sky.

At the same time, Lao Tzu gently tapped the void with his flat cane.

"Certainly."

A single, simple word, yet it carries profound meaning.

The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, which was originally operating wildly and even suppressing the Primordial Celestial Venerable, seemed to have been paused.

The endless yellow sand, the roaring golden dragon, the invincible sharpness... all froze the moment the Sage of Taiqing made his move.

This is the power of Taiqing Laozi, the leader of the Six Sages.

When it does not move, it does so; but when it does, it will determine the fate of the world.

The so-called "mortal defeating saint" is ultimately just a dazzling but short-lived firework in the face of absolute power.

Su Bai's massive dragon body was firmly pressed down by the fire-wind futon, making him unable to move an inch.

The situation was completely reversed in an instant!

Within the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, the Wind and Fire Futon stabilized the universe, and the Tai Chi diagram transformed into a golden bridge to suppress Yin and Yang.

With the combined efforts of the two sages, the once ferocious and overwhelming killing formation was now like a tiger with its claws and teeth pulled out, only able to let out unwilling howls.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable's face was ashen, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand emitted a destructive Jade Purity divine light. The humiliation he had just suffered was an indelible disgrace for a sage of such high rank.

He not only wanted to break the formation, but also to establish his authority.

"Even the light of a grain of rice dares to rival the brilliance of the sun and moon."

Yuanshi Tianzun coldly pronounced his judgment, and the jade ruyi fell, carrying an unparalleled saintly pressure, directly smashing towards Su Bai, who was already being suppressed by the wind and fire futon at the center of the formation.

If this attack lands, Su Bai will be annihilated, leaving not even a trace.

"Spirit Cutting!!"

The Three Immortals of Sanxiao, restrained by the Sage's oppressive aura, watched helplessly as the jade ruyi fell, letting out a mournful cry. Yunxiao even risked burning his own essence, trying to break through the Taiqing Sage's restraints to shield Su Bai from the attack, but to no avail.

Despair overwhelmed the three of them like a tidal wave.

However, just as the jade ruyi was about to touch Su Bailong's body...

Su Bai, who had been suppressed, suddenly had an unprecedented flame ignite in his golden dragon eyes, which had been somewhat dim.

That is—the fire of sacrifice!

"With me here, no one can harm you."

That deep, hoarse voice rang out for the last time in the minds of the Three Immortals.

Without any hesitation, without holding back, Su Bai chose the most tragic and decisive method—self-destruction of his origin!

boom--!!!

A terrifying aura, surpassing even that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal and even faintly touching the threshold of the Primordial Chaos Realm, erupted wildly from Su Bai's body. The divine soul power that was originally used to maintain his human form and dragon body was completely burned away at this moment, all for the sake of that instantaneous ultimate sublimation.

The dragon's body shattered, and golden light shone brightly.

Su Bai disappeared.

In its place was a golden dragon scissors that stretched across the heavens and earth, seemingly formed from pure light and laws!

But this pair of scissors is no longer aimed at the physical body or magical artifacts; its sharpness is directed at the ethereal and intangible—cause and effect and destiny!

"This cut...breaks your shackles!"

With Su Bai's final roar of divine thought, the enormous golden dragon scissors transformed into a golden rainbow flowing upstream, ignoring the suppression of the Wind and Fire Futon and the protective divine light of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, and fiercely slashed towards a certain place in the void!

There, there were countless gray threads invisible to the naked eye.

That was the constraint of the Heavenly Dao, the pull of the Investiture of the Gods, and the destiny that would turn the Three Immortals into puppets of the Heavenly Court—a karmic cause and effect!

"What?!"

Even the usually calm and composed Sage Taiqing finally showed a hint of shock on his face.

"How dare you!!!"

The Primordial Celestial Lord was both shocked and enraged; he saw through Su Bai's intentions! This wretched creature actually dared to attempt to sever the predetermined fate of the Investiture of the Gods?!

This is simply defying the heavens!

But it was too late.

That single cut contained all of Su Bai's life, soul, and obsession, as well as the earth-shattering love of the Three Immortals.

Snap! Snap!

A crisp, clear sound, as if some great law had broken, resounded throughout the entire primordial world, and also echoed in the Lingxiao Palace at this very moment.

In the void, the gray causal thread that was originally tightly wrapped around the depths of the Three Immortals' primordial spirits and connected to the Investiture of the Gods was actually cut off by Su Bai in a desperate move...

It was cut in half!

puff!

As a result of the backlash of cause and effect, although Yuanshi Tianzun was not seriously injured, a corner of his protective auspicious cloud was forcibly cut off by the aftershock of this scissor, and he staggered backward, with a tear appearing on his saintly robe!

This cut almost injured the saint's body!

"You wretched creature! You must not be allowed to live!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable went completely berserk.

The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand shone a thousandfold, carrying the saint's boundless rage, and slammed heavily onto the Golden Dragon Scissors, which had already exhausted all its power.

when--!

A mournful cry.

The golden dragon scissors that had just created a miracle dimmed to their lowest point in an instant under the sage's angry strike.

In the instant the golden light dissipated, everyone saw an extremely illusory phantom of a divine soul being shaken out from the scissors.

That's Su Bai.

He looked at the three Xiaos who were already in a daze not far away, and a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

That was the second smile he ever had in his life.

It was also the last one.

boom!

Under the terrifying pressure of the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, this already incomplete divine soul instantly shattered into billions of starlight, completely dissipating into the world.

Even the golden dragon scissors themselves became dull and lifeless, turning into two streams of light that fell to the dust, devoid of any spirituality.

"No--!!!"

The heart-wrenching cries of the Three Immortals echoed through the heavens.

But this did not change the outcome.

The Sage Taiqing sighed softly, waved his sleeve, and the Qiankun Diagram descended, sweeping away the despondent Yunxiao and suppressing him beneath Qilin Cliff.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable's face turned ashen. He swung the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi once more, killing Qiongxiao and turning Bixiao into blood.

The Three Immortals have been defeated.

The outcome doesn't seem to have changed.
