The Prince Can Do Divination

Chapter 476: Chapter 285: Yun Qinghe of the Celestial Master’s Mansion, with the Taoist Sect’s Celestial Masters, Comes to Great Yan

"He can’t defeat him, but he can trap Your Majesty for now. That way, Great Yan will be left to face the armies of the Six Kingdoms alone."

"What a cunning plan!"

A Cultivator couldn’t help but curse.

"We have to act. We can’t just sit here and do nothing."

The Champion Marquis acted decisively, resolving to lead the Cultivators of Great Yan in a counterattack.

’This is no time to blindly follow His Majesty’s orders.’

"I’ve been waiting for this."

Taiwei True Monarch held up the Yin Yang Profound Mirror, his gaze grim.

He was the first to charge into battle!

A Yin Yang Grand Trigram materialized between heaven and earth, intending to shatter the array that trapped Lu Mingyuan.

The Sword Cultivator Scholars of the Three Academies, Saintess Ziwei, Fairy Ci Hang, and the others followed close behind, each unleashing their own Divine Powers and Techniques.

"Three Pristine Ones Cloud-Pushing Hand!"

Following right behind Taiwei True Monarch, Sui Yuqing struck out with a palm. Her attack carried the Power of Heaven and Earth, mobilizing the entire cloud layer with her will alone!

ROAR!

At that moment, a phantom image of a golden Great Buddha, with a ’卍’ mark floating between its brows, flew from Jiang Shan’s palm and collided with the torrent of clouds coalesced from the Cloud-Pushing Hand.

The moment the cloud-stream Palm Seal came into contact with the Buddha’s Light emanating from the ’卍’ mark, it dissipated, breaking apart into motes of light and vanishing without a trace.

The next moment, the phantom of the golden Great Buddha crashed into the gorge. Its momentum was immense, like the toll of an ancient bell at dusk, threatening to rip the heavens and the earth apart.

’He’s actually this strong.’

The vermilion mark between Sui Yuqing’s brows furrowed, and she didn’t dare to let her guard down.

A Flying Sword shot out from her sleeve, unleashing a wave of heaven-storming Sword Qi.

Jiang Shan remained utterly fearless. His hands formed a Cross Buddha Seal. He opened his mouth, inhaling the Power of Heaven and Earth into his very core. His body erupted in boundless Buddha’s Light, and a thousand-li-wide golden cloud gathered above his head. Then, he unleashed the Dragon and Tiger Arhat Eight Sounds.

The resulting roar shook the heavens and the earth.

This was the voice of the Buddha himself—an irresistibly powerful Divine Technique!

"The Six-Character Great Bright Spell!"

"Om! Ma! Ni! Pad! Me! Hum!"

The Cultivators of both Great Yan and the Six Kingdoms refused to sit by and wait for death. They all launched their own attacks, but none created a disturbance on the same scale as Jiang Shan’s.

Only now had this great war truly erupted.

Just as everyone was growing anxious and restless,

"Hey, look! The clouds over there... they’re so blue."

A Great Yan soldier cried out in surprise, pointing toward Jiayu Pass.

"That’s not a cloud—it’s a person!"

Soon, someone realized the blue radiance wasn’t the color of the sky itself, but a startling phenomenon caused by a Cultivator.

In that patch of sky he pointed to,

a Daoist Nun was approaching, seemingly walking on air. Her expression was cold and aloof. She wore a green Magic Robe and carried an ancient, unadorned Flying Sword three fingers’ breadth wide on her back. A fissure opened between her brows, like the Celestial Gate itself parting to release a brilliant Golden Radiance.

She casually tossed this same impossibly ancient-looking Flying Sword.

In an instant, it crossed thousands of miles.

With a single strike, it embedded itself right in the core of the thousand-li Sword Array.

In that instant, the Sword Array shattered completely.

This scene drew the attention and bewilderment of the Cultivators from every faction.

Everyone began to speculate about the woman’s identity.

And about the Flying Sword she wielded—could it be an Immortal Sword?

After all, only the might of an Immortal Sword could so easily shatter the century-old Sword Array contained within the Jade Chilong.

Following behind her was a middle-aged Daoist master with graying hair at his temples. Arcs of electricity flickered within his aura. He stood upon the sea of clouds, his expression unchanging even as Heaven-Piercing Sword Qi raged beneath his feet.

Thunder crackled overhead as countless bolts of lightning enveloped his body.

The cold and detached Daoist Nun’s eyes grew even colder when she spotted Lu Mingyuan within the Sword Array. Her voice boomed across the battlefield via sound transmission: "Yun Qinghe of the Celestial Master’s Mansion, here with the Celestial Master of the Taoist Sect, has come to aid Great Yan!"
