Chapter 572: The Nine Yin Divine Art

The Taotie's strength was terrifying; its gaping maw pressed down upon the heavens, and at its center appeared a blood-red vortex that stirred heaven and earth, shaking the entire void, which continuously exploded.

The surrounding alien creatures clicked their tongues in amazement; this being was too dreadful—with one gulp, it could devour all the living beings in a small city.

Having suffered greatly last time while stealing the monkey wine, Xiaoji had learned his lesson. As soon as he caught Gu Ming, he ferried Taixujun to the side of the jade platform, evading this terrible assault.

"Who are you?" Gu Ming glared angrily at the black-robed youth before him. His hair whipped wildly, but his own energy was nearly depleted, and now a group of fierce figures suppressed him, leaving him unable to resist.

Xuanyuan Mu scratched his head and handed Gu Ming to Yang Tian. He had struck swiftly, and Gu Ming had not reacted at all.

"Heh heh, old fellow, long time no see." Fatty grinned, his face full of ferocity, and smashed a gleaming bone club toward Gu Ming's head.

"Ah..." A flurry of blows ensued. Dahu was ferocious, his huge tiger claws relentlessly pounding Gu Ming's head. They beat Gu Ming soundly, knocking out all his teeth.

"Don't kill him yet." Yang Tian threw the nearly unconscious Gu Ming into the Golden Crow Divine Furnace. His gaze fell upon the group of alien creatures wreaking havoc, a cold glint in his eyes.

Clenching his fist, Yang Tian's eyes flickered for a moment. He said softly, "I'll go get the technique. Buy me some time."

Taixujun crossed the void, appearing with extreme speed before an alien creature that was inhaling essence. The void split open instantly, and with the same method as before, it erupted with overwhelming fluctuations, killing it on the spot.

They went all out. Xuanyuan Mu was the strongest, his divine power surging as he blasted off the creature's arm. The void shook, blood and bone flying.

"Kill!" roared the Taotie, spitting out a blood-colored small pagoda that smashed toward the split void with incredible speed.

The remaining strong all roared and charged into the breach. Heaven and earth boiled over, dazzling divine light like an unleashed eternity, wildly violent.

Amid the surging divine light, none noticed a particle like dust appearing beside the radiant jade slip.

Yun'er's tightly shut eyes trembled slightly. Yang Tian's whole body shook with excitement—this must be the Nine Yin Divine Art!

"You'll be fine. I won't let you leave me." Stroking Yun'er's hair, Yang Tian held her warm body tightly in his arms. He feared losing her again and would never allow Yun'er to leave him.

Yun'er's eyelids fluttered faintly, as if she heard Yang Tian's call. She did not know where she was. The Life Divine Liquid and the Five-Colored Divine Lotus protected her last heart meridian, preventing her from completely losing her vitality.

In the sky, the jade slip burst forth with divine light like a bolt of silk, emitting a faint, thrilling aura, burning like a great sun, truly terrifying.

At that moment, a resolute-faced youth holding a maiden's jade-like form appeared in this realm.

As soon as the maiden appeared, the jade slip began to pulse, leaking strands of divine light that formed ancient荒古 characters imbued with divine nature, which burrowed into Yun'er's body.

"Success!" Seeing the dazzling ancient characters, Yang Tian's eyes blazed with divine light. He was extremely excited and couldn't help exclaiming.

The ancient characters, filled with overwhelming divine nature, swirled in the void, instantly alerting the creatures that were smashing the void. They looked up at the two figures in the sky.

"Bastard!" roared the Taotie. He hadn't expected someone to sneak in and take the technique.

"They've taken the unparalleled divine technique!" A golden-glowing alien creature roared in disbelief.

Each of the four scripture pavilions housed a peerless divine ability, but those who could retrieve one were few and far between!

Even the nine great families would covet such scriptures; each technique was unparalleled through the ages!

"They actually succeeded, and it was this girl who took it." Xuanyuan Mu was incredulous. When he glanced at the ancient characters flowing in the void, his eyes nearly bled, and he dared not look directly.

Rumble! The alien creatures went berserk, instantly abandoning the mysterious figure in the void and charging toward the space ahead to seize the divine technique.

With a boom, an ancient jade talisman erupted with layers of runes, forming a vast sea of runes that blocked the path ahead.

"Open up!" bellowed the Taotie, shaking heaven and earth. He opened his maw wide and inhaled fiercely, distorting the rune sea and devouring it whole.

A clear, prolonged roar resounded. Xuanyuan Mu strode through the void, the Augury Rod in his hand glowing as he joined battle with the terrifying Taotie.

Yang Tian sat cross-legged in the void, his gaze falling on the charging alien creatures. More than half were already gone, but three at the Great Power level were still rushing toward him.

Each of these creatures was far beyond Yang Tian's ability to contend with; they were extremely powerful, easily shattering a mountain.

Suddenly, a bright lunar radiance rose around Yang Tian. Heaven and earth turned white, like a bolt of silk striking in all directions.

With a hum, a divine diagram descended from the sky, radiating terrifying starlight, floating in the void and generating immense power.

"Suppress!" A loud shout came. Nine layers of the Milky Way fell in an instant, like a star sea descending, dazzling and magnificent, suppressing the void.

Moreover, a green pearl hidden among the stars emitted a strange fluctuation. The trembling void suddenly froze, extremely eerie.

"This Wind-Calming Pearl is truly marvelous." Seeing this, Yang Tian couldn't help nodding. With the Wind-Calming Pearl, the power of his divine diagram had nearly risen a level.

"Kill!" A golden-glowing alien creature spat out a small golden sword, which bloomed with a thousand-zhang divine radiance, slashing toward the great star in the void.

Inside, it was in complete turmoil. The three alien creatures went wild. Though the pressure around them was immense, they were about to break through, their terrifying divine power splitting the starry river, nearly shattering Yang Tian's array diagram.

Yang Tian's bones rattled under immense pressure. If he hadn't merged with the divine statue, holding them off for even a moment would have been a pipe dream.

"Suppress!" Yang Tian roared, divine light shooting up like a bolt of silk, a thousand zhang of golden radiance descending. His golden lake was nearly burning, his blood vessels twisting.

Suddenly, Yang Tian's body erupted with dazzling purple light. A terrifying, overwhelming bloodline pressure instantly spread across the field, intimidating the attacking alien creatures.

"Such a terrifying bloodline!" The golden-glowing creature shuddered, its own bloodline trembling.

"This guy really is a descendant of the Yang family!" Xuanyuan Mu clicked his tongue, a hint of shock in his eyes.

Yang Tian's bloodline surged. At this moment, he seemed to become the supreme being of heaven and earth, his battle aura soaring. A golden thunder drum manifested, beating out a soul-shaking iron-and-spear sound.

"Yang Tian!" The Taotie instantly recognized him, a trace of surprise spreading in his eyes. He hadn't expected Yang Tian's background to be so great; even his own bloodline was suppressed a little.

Yang Tian strode through the void, his hair flying wildly, his gaze like lightning. The bloodline that had long lain dormant surged powerfully; this was his first time using it to suppress a great enemy.

Though the three alien creatures were shocked, their assault did not diminish. They intended to kill this invincible youth, for he possessed a divine object.

With a boom, a blood-red jade pendant, radiating a bloody light, pressed down instantly on the creatures below, floating amid the layers of the starry sea, intimidating all present.

"Faster..." Yang Tian glanced at Yun'er, who was receiving the technique, and shouted inwardly. His energy was rapidly depleting; he couldn't hold out much longer.

The blood-red jade pendant contained a chilling fluctuation. Yang Tian had once used this divine object to instantly kill an alien creature—a scene many still remembered.

"Kill him! He's buying time!" roared the Taotie, his eyes cold as he looked down at Yang Tian, as if at his prey.

He was like a young god, his aura terrifying, commanding all the alien creatures to kill Yang Tian.
