But when the big black dog, the Ninth Emperor, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons attacked together, they were at least evenly matched with him, making him feel strained!

And now, there is still one person who hasn't made a move—

Old man Tianji!

At this moment, the three of them had reached a balance with Yang Yi. The Old Man of Heavenly Secrets smiled slightly and said, "Yang Yi, if I were to make a move, you would surely perish. If you repent and turn back from your misguided path, perhaps I can spare your life. Admit defeat—"

As he spoke, he paced back and forth in the courtyard, constantly scrutinizing Yang Yi's condition, seemingly looking for an opportunity to strike.

"Is that so? Why don't you give it a try!"

Despite resisting the combined power of the black dog and Xia Jingmo, Yang Yi remained calm and composed as he spoke, though his tone was no longer as relaxed and carefree.

"Woof! Stop arguing with him! Just attack and kill him!"

The big black dog became somewhat agitated.

"Fellow Daoist Tianji, please make your move quickly!"

"Don't hesitate!"

Even Xia Jingmo and the Ninth Emperor urged them on, saying that they had reached a delicate balance with Yang Yi and only needed to exert a little more effort to easily defeat him.

The old man of the heavenly secrets hesitated and did not move... which seemed rather strange.

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need to rush. I have a feeling that something is amiss..."

While giving perfunctory replies, the old man Tianji was secretly circulating a cultivation technique, and his soul was also gently vibrating.

He is sensing, he is calling!

No one knew that the so-called Heavenly Secret Elder was actually the living being captured on the dam back then!

His physical body was refined, and his yang energy was extracted, but a wisp of his soul flew away. For countless years, he had been living in anonymity. Now that the entire underworld was about to be destroyed, finding a way out in advance was the most important thing.

But the Black Sea and the dikes were already sealed off, making it impossible to pass by sea. The only way was the shortcut created by that person back then.

It can lead directly to the source—or it can lead to the world of the living!

"They should be here by now, they should be able to sense me..."

He murmured!

This place is the realm of ultimate truth, and with that passage, it is the place where he is most likely to contact the people of the mortal world. After communicating with the beings of the mortal world, he only needs their guidance to leave smoothly and reunite with them!

The moment when the big black dog and the others were locked in a stalemate with Yang Yi was his best opportunity, and he wouldn't be disturbed.

He was extremely anxious, and finally, after about an incense stick's time had passed, Yang Yi finally felt a response.

Meanwhile, in a small mountain village, a faint light seemed to emerge from an ancient well.

"wrong!"

Yang Yi suddenly looked at the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets and shouted, "What tricks have you played?!"

He had been here for a long time, and he could sense every change in the village, from the grass to the trees. At this moment, anger appeared on his face.

"Hehe, Yang Yi, you yin ghost, it's time to return your yang energy to me!"

The old man of the heavens could no longer bear it. He knew that the people of the mortal world were already preparing to guide him. Before that, he had to do one last thing: gather his stone body and bring it back to the mortal world!

So, without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed at Yang Yi!

Like a calm lake shattered by a boulder, the balance maintained between the three and Yang Yi finally erupted with immense power. The peach tree's blood-red light faded, and the golden light of the Ninth Emperor shone towards Yang Yi. The piercing bark of the big black dog echoed in his mind, and even the teacup in his hand was pierced by Xia Jingmo's sword.

Yang Yi's defenses have been breached!

The old man's large hand was about to press directly onto his forehead!

"Go to hell!"

The four men shouted, and Yang Yi was about to be defeated!

Do you really think you can win?

But Yang Yi let out a cold shout, and a bronze mirror had appeared in his hand without anyone noticing!

The bronze mirror looked mottled, with much of the copper paint peeling off. It was just an ordinary household item. But now, with his added power, it burst forth with dazzling light!
