Chapter 1771: Luo Ruoxi, Ancient Saint?

Appearing on the stone platform and taking the book was none other than Luo Ruoxi, who had vanished in the passage just moments ago!

She had somehow appeared here without anyone noticing!

Wasn't there a seal outside that required the Inherited Mother Talisman to enter?

How did she get in earlier than him?

Most crucially... he possessed the Library of Heaven's Path and could read countless books. Could she have also accomplished this and passed the assessment?

Rumble!

Before he could figure out these doubts, as the Spring and Autumn Canon was lifted from the stone platform, the entire Confucian Temple shook incessantly, as if losing the treasure that suppressed it, no longer able to bear the power from the void.

Whoosh!

The main hall collapsed first, and countless forces surged like tidal waves, madly pouring into the book.

Luo Ruoxi on the stone platform remained completely unaffected, her arm gently raised.

Countless beams of light shot out from the book. This supreme treasure personally refined by Master Confucius seemed to want to break free from her hand, but could not do so no matter what.

Under the violent shaking, the surrounding space twisted repeatedly, and the seal of the main hall shattered with a bang.

The Spring and Autumn Canon has emerged...

Quick, someone must be trying to refine it!

Who got it? That Zhang Xuan? Or my descendant?

Roars erupted one after another, and countless figures appeared.

They were the many Ancient Saints who had been guarding outside the main hall.

Previously, they were restricted by the seal left by Master Confucius and could only wait outside. Now, with the Spring and Autumn Canon shaking, the main hall collapsed, the seal was destroyed, and unable to hold back any longer, they all rushed in.

It's that girl...

Luo Ruoxi?

Seeing the figure holding the Spring and Autumn Canon, everyone was stunned.

Given the performance of this Master Zhang Xuan, the chances of him obtaining the Spring and Autumn Canon were high. They never dreamed that it would be this girl, who followed behind him and seemed unremarkable.

You can't refine it, so give it to me!

Seeing the book emit dazzling light, White Venerable's eyes turned red with excitement. Unable to hold back any longer, he raised his hoof and claw, suddenly grabbing at Luo Ruoxi.

Be careful...

Unexpected such a big change, with Ancient Saints appearing, Zhang Xuan's face turned ugly. Just as he was about to rush over to save her, he saw the girl not far away suddenly raise her eyebrows.

Boom!

A powerful aura burst from her body, piercing straight into the sky. Power surged, forming a strong defensive wall around her.

Bang!

White Venerable's hoof and claw landed on the defensive wall, leaving not a trace, unable even to damage it.

This is... the power of an Ancient Saint?

Zhang Xuan's pupils contracted.

In that instant, the girl displayed power that only an Ancient Saint could wield, even stronger than White Venerable!

Sizzle!

Having displayed Ancient Saint-level strength, the Spring and Autumn Canon seemed unable to resist any longer.

Damn it, she's going to refine it. We must not let her succeed!

His face suddenly changed, and Yan Qing Ancient Saint shouted loudly.

Before his voice ended, a halberd tore through the air, flying straight toward Luo Ruoxi.

Under that thrust, space and time seemed to freeze, and a massive spatial裂缝 stretched for tens of thousands of kilometers, ferocious and terrifying.

An Ancient Saint at the Blood Rebirth level, the pinnacle of the current era, unleashed power that could destroy heaven and earth with a single move.

Before this power even approached, Zhang Xuan, who was close to Luo Ruoxi, felt his bones about to be crushed. His golden body, tempered by Supreme Heavenly Fire, was as fragile as a toy under this pressure.

Just as he felt he couldn't hold on, Luo Ruoxi, holding the Spring and Autumn Canon, gently flicked her jade hand.

A warm light immediately enveloped him, and he instantly left the battle circle.

Sizzle!

At that moment, the halberd appeared above Luo Ruoxi's head.

The girl's expression remained unchanged. With one hand gripping the Spring and Autumn Canon, she gently pointed with the other.

Her fingertip aimed at this world-destroying weapon.

Hum!

The latter spun rapidly. Yan Qing Ancient Saint's face flushed red, unable to hold on any longer. The halberd flew out of his hand, and he himself spat blood and flew backward.

This...

Zhang Xuan's pupils contracted.

All along, he had thought Luo Ruoxi's cultivation was not much different from his. He never dreamed that she was an Ancient Saint, and so powerful!

A single finger sent Yan Qing Ancient Saint, the strongest of the four major forces, flying... Could it be that she had surpassed Blood Rebirth and reached the Void Shattering realm?

If so... where did she come from?

Whoosh!

As he wondered, the space behind the girl tore open like paper, revealing a huge hole.

She's going to escape. If we don't act now, the Spring and Autumn Canon will truly become hers...

Seeing this, Yan Qing Ancient Saint shouted again.

Those who had hesitated could no longer hold back and attacked simultaneously.

Whoosh!

A pair of ghostly hands appeared out of thin air before Old Ghost Yu, grabbing through the void.

Yan Qing Ancient Saint's halberd turned again and thrust forward.

White Venerable's hoof and claw emitted a cold light, freezing time and space in an instant.

All the Ancient Saints of the three major forces attacked together. Heaven and earth seemed to enter a primordial chaos, light twisted, and the world turned into night.

Ancient Saints were too powerful, especially with so many attacking at once. The entire Master Teacher Continent might be directly sunk!

Have you asked me, Zhang Hongtian, before doing this?

Seeing the attacks about to land on Luo Ruoxi, an angry shout rang out, followed by a glorious sword aura that instantly slashed open the space around Luo Ruoxi and met the attackers.

Zhang Hongtian, don't be foolish... She's not from your Master Teacher Hall!

Yan Qing Ancient Saint roared, his palm pressing down fiercely.

The halberd and sword tip clashed. Zhang Hongtian involuntarily stepped back a few paces, his face pale.

Compared to this strongest of the Hundred Schools of Thought, he was still far behind.

He is my descendant's girlfriend, so she is a member of our Zhang family...

Zhang Hongtian did not concede, raising his sword again.

However, no matter how strong he was alone, he could not withstand the combined siege of so many masters, especially since Yan Qing Ancient Saint's strength far exceeded his.

Rip!

The combined power continued to fall toward Luo Ruoxi's head.

The girl still held the Spring and Autumn Canon with one hand, and it was unclear when she would succeed in refining it. But surrounded by so much power, she could not escape.

Luo Ruoxi...

Seeing the girl about to be hit by the siege, Zhang Xuan roared. Just as he was about to summon the Savage, the Ancient Saint corpse, and the Demonic Sword to help block, he saw a blade light slashing straight from afar.

Before it arrived, the light of the sun and moon was completely drawn in, and space could no longer bear it.

Miss, what you arranged is ready. I will block these attacks for you...

Whoosh!

Wu Chen, who had disappeared earlier, appeared before everyone.
