Honghuang: It makes sense that there are four Sanqing, right?

"Second brother, give me the Pangu Banner."

For someone of Xu Qing's caliber, having his arm chopped off is not a minor injury, but it's not a serious one either.

With the blessing of Nuwa's creation laws, Xu Qing quickly regained some of his strength.

As soon as he recovered, Xu Qing transmitted his voice to Yuanshi.

Now that things have come to this, both he and Houtu are injured, and it is definitely not possible to do without using the power of the Heaven-Opening Axe.

Yuanshi was puzzled, but the situation was urgent. Xu Qing would not speak without reason and dared not delay. He immediately summoned the Pangu Banner, which appeared behind Xu Qing.

After obtaining the Pangu Banner, Xu Qing immediately took out the Chaos Bell and Taiji Diagram that he had prepared beforehand, and at the same time set up a small array with the Naguo Guarding Jade to conceal his aura.

The Three Treasures floated in front of Xu Qing in a mysterious way. The pattern vaguely resembled an axe, but something was missing.

Just as Xu Qing was trying to unleash the power of the Heaven-Opening Axe in a desperate struggle, Kunwu had already reached within a hundred feet of the Primordial Saints. This distance was almost equivalent to mortals being face to face.

Houtu, Hongjun, and Luohou had all recovered by this time. Together with Jieyin, Nuwa, Yuanshi, and Tongtian, the seven saints each held their magical treasures and formed an array to confront Kunwu.

"Just a death throes."

Kunwu's gaze was as if he were looking at a pile of corpses. He didn't need any supernatural powers at all. With a light sweep of his sword, the defense formed by the combined power of the seven saints began to tremble violently.

Behind Kunwu, Shenni remained in his original form, keeping an eye on Xu Qing, who was meditating in his eyes, while also guarding against a possible sneak attack from Santian or Qiongqi.

"Let's see how long you can hold out!"

Kunwu seemed somewhat annoyed that he hadn't killed everyone with a single sword strike. He first threw his Kunwu sword upwards, then formed hand seals, with Daoist energy spreading throughout the air.

As the Kunwu Law was activated, both the Kunwu Sword and the Kunwu body suddenly grew larger, until they completely blocked the sky in front of the Seven Saints, until even the sun and moon were nothing more than a speck of dust in his hand, so large and magnificent, so terrifying.

"cut!"

As the Kunwu sword slashed down, it brought with it the resounding sound of thunder from the heavens. Kunwu himself spoke in a voice that was as if he held the mandate of heaven, devoid of emotion yet undeniable, as if the majesty of heaven was so great that people couldn't help but want to prostrate themselves in worship.

The Kunwu Sword was already unimaginably large. Faced with this attack, the Seven Sages felt as if they were seeing not a sword blade coming down from another world, but a towering mountain collapsing from another world!

"Fellow Daoists, hold on!"

Faced with this blow that would determine the life and death of the primordial world, Houtu took the lead and stepped forward, activating the Earth Book for defense while encouraging the other six sages.

"Though she is a woman, she is also a hero."

Kunwu raised an eyebrow. Cultivation is not divided by gender, but the number of male powerhouses in the prehistoric world is indeed far greater than that of female powerhouses. Those with a fiery temperament like Houtu are even rarer, and he has never even seen one.

Unfortunately, I was born in the wrong era...

Kunwu sighed inwardly, and increased the force of his Kunwu sword once more. No matter if you are a hero or a villain, innocent or kind, if I want to live, no one is off-limits to me.

"Madam, we are here to help you!"

Hongjun and Rahu followed closely behind. Hongjun activated the Taiji Diagram, while Rahu activated the Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth.

"Sister-in-law, we're here to help you!"

Following closely behind, Yuanshi Tongtian activated the Jade Ruyi, while Tongtian activated the Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth.

"Fellow Daoist, watch as we come to your aid!"

Nuwa followed closely behind Tu, Nuwa activated the Creation Cauldron, and Tu activated the Azure Lotus Banner.

Faced with this terrifying attack, the Seven Primordial Sages all took a step forward together, with none of them retreating.

The seven saints exchanged a smile, their hearts filled with boundless pride, their aura growing even stronger, and they managed to block another attack.

"A cornered beast's struggle!"

Having his attack blocked by a swarm of ants once again, Kunwu felt he had lost face. A flash of anger crossed his eyes, and he raised his Kunwu sword high, ready to strike again.

I'd like to see how many times you can hold off me.

Just as Kunwu was about to draw his sword again, Shenni's voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"Retreat immediately!"

What do I need to return here?

The thought flashed through Kunwu's mind, but he didn't have time to think it through.

Suddenly, a dazzling axe shadow appeared behind the various magical treasures above the heads of the Seven Saints. As soon as this axe appeared, all the magical treasures descended three zhang (approximately 10 meters) as if in submission.

That's... Pangu's Axe?!

Kunwu couldn't believe his eyes, but the power and aura were clearly undeniable.

The next moment, a beam of axe light cleaved down, and Kunwu felt as if he were a small boat on the sea, having lost all his strength and not even having the will to resist.

This is not a metaphor, but rather that the connection between Kunwu and the Great Dao was indeed severed by Pangu's axe, causing him to lose the power of the laws and leaving him with only a physical body at the level of a quasi-saint.

This is the supreme treasure of chaos!

The next moment, Kunwu, who had just been so arrogant, was completely destroyed, his true spirit annihilated, with three parts smugness and seven parts disbelief still remaining in his eyes.

"idiot!"

Shen Ni was utterly shocked. He had been staring at Xu Qing the whole time. He knew his own attack was effective, and Xu Qing's injuries should be less severe than those of Hou Tu, Luo Hou, and Hong Jun.

However, Houtu and the other two had already recovered and rejoined the battle, while Xu Qing had been hiding in the rear healing his wounds and showed no signs of returning to the battlefield for a long time.

Is Xu Qing a coward who fears death?

That's absolutely impossible. According to Shi Chen, Hou Tu is Xu Qing's Daoist partner, and Shen Ni has seen Hou Tu's performance. Her Daoist partner is definitely not a coward.

If that's the case, something fishy must be going on!

Shen Ni could probably guess that Xu Qing was probably brewing some kind of big move, but... the real world was about to be destroyed, and at the same time, San Tian and others were right behind him.

Forget it, Xu Qing's strength is what it is; at most, he can only kill Kunwu with one blow. With me here watching over things, saving Kunwu's life shouldn't be a problem.

However, the reality far exceeded Shen Ni's expectations. This was not a kill, it was an instant kill!

If I hadn't been watching Xu Qing closely and running fast, I probably would have died there too!

This is terrifying! How could the Heaven-Opening Axe be in Xu Qing's hands? That's a supreme treasure of chaos! How could the primordial world allow such a thing to exist?!

Shen Ni retreated rapidly, all the way to behind the Three Heavens, and even now he is still filled with lingering fear.

I told them to retreat quickly, but that idiot Kunwu still dared to linger. Now look what happened, he's dead and gone, and even his companion spirit treasure was reduced to ashes by the Heaven-Opening Axe.

Shi Chen was so frightened by the familiar axe light that he fled hundreds of millions of miles away. Back then, it was this axe that opened the heavens and earth that had tainted the souls of countless chaotic demons.

For the past three days, he had neither directly faced the damage from the Heaven-Opening Axe nor witnessed its past achievements, so he managed to remain calm.

But seeing Kunwu's fate, the three of them turned pale with fright. If they could kill Kunwu, they could definitely kill them!
