A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm-Chapter 1372: Escape

Gu Huojin was completely unbothered by this revelation, and a faint smile appeared on his face as he quickly made a string of hand seals, upon which what appeared to have been a complex array appeared over his glabella.

The array was formed by runes of nine different colors, each of which was giving off a different type of law powers.

However, not only were these nine types of law powers not in conflict with one another, they were fused together in a harmonious state to produce a peculiar aura that was somewhat similar to the power of the Heavenly Dao.

Radiant, nine-colored light erupted out of Gu Huojin's body in all directions, and his four assailants hurriedly adopted protective measures, but the nine-colored light merely swept over them in an innocuous fashion.

"What did you just do?" the Devilish Monarch asked as a dark look appeared on his face, while the Reincarnation Palace Master was also on high alert.

Right at this moment, Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong cried out in pain and alarm in unison, and a nine-colored diagram appeared over each of their glabellas before releasing lines of nine-colored light that spread rapidly over their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, both of them were completely covered in these nine-colored lines, and it seemed that this nine-colored light was attempting to control their bodies, but given that both of them were Essential Dao Ancestors that commanded tremendous power, they were able to stave off its controlling effects.

However, the two of them were temporarily robbed of their ability to use their law powers, and right at this moment, a pair of giant, golden palm projections appeared above them before crashing down upon their heads.

Gu Huojin had made his first move, and Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong were powerless to defend themselves.

All off a sudden, two streaks of dark red light raced through the air to oppose the pair of palm projections, and it was the Reincarnation Palace Master who had intervened in a timely fashion.

The two streaks of dark red light were instantly eradicated upon contact, but the pair of palm projections were also slowed down for an instant.

At the same time, a burst of spatial fluctuations erupted forth as the two of them vanished into thin air, causing the pair of palm projections to completely miss their targets.

Several hundred kilometers away, Li Yuanjiu and Chi Rong reemerged along with the Devilish Monarch and the Reincarnation Palace Master.

"Are you two alright?" the Devilish Monarch asked while keeping a wary eye on Gu Huojin.

"The marks on our foreheads attempted to control our law powers. I don't know what they are and when they entered our bodies," Li Yuanjiu explained while resisting the nine-colored array on his glabella with all his might, and Chi Rong was doing the same.

"Those are Divine Dao Seals," the Reincarnation Palace Master declared with a grim expression.

"What? Aren't Divine Dao Seals meant to ward off the assimilation of the Heavenly Dao?" Chi Rong exclaimed.

"That's right, but I tampered with the Divine Dao Seal a little on this occasion," Gu Huojin explained as he flew over from afar, and right at this moment, all of the cultivators that had just evacuated from the Jade Pond Paradise came flying back from afar.

The Divine Dao Seal had appeared over their glabellas as well, and judging from the panicked looks on their faces, it was clear that they were not in control of their own bodies.

Furthermore, blinding light was radiating from their bodies, as if they were burning through their own life force, and they crashed into the defenseless rear of the devilish army.

These cultivators were overexerting themselves to the extreme with no regard for their own health, and they were unleashing ferocious barrages of attacks like madmen, displaying superior combat prowess than under normal circumstances.

Countless immortal treasures were sent hurtling into the devilish army's ranks, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of casualties had already been incurred.

The banquet attendees were far more powerful than the devilish army's forces to begin with, and the latter had also been caught completely off guard.

As a result, large holes were quickly torn into the encirclement, and the Heavenly Court cultivators were ecstatic to see this as they withdrew their defensive array and also went on the attack.

The cultivators that were being involuntarily controlled stormed through the devilish army before crashing into the primordial army, where they continued their deranged spree of slaughter.

......

Han Li had only just withdrawn all of his time law treasures when a vast sea of purple flames came sweeping toward him from all directions.

With no available path for retreat or evasion, Han Li harrumphed coldly, "You've already wasted more than enough of my time!"

Immediately thereafter, he channeled his Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra before thrusting a palm forward, and the space within the array, which had only just regained some connection with the outside world, was instantly turned upside-down by some type of strange force, causing the sea of purple flames to rise upward.

Immediately thereafter, a gargantuan, golden hand appeared up above before sweeping toward Zhu Yan and Zi Shan like the palm of an almighty deity.

At the same time, tremendous power came flooding in from the outside world before surging into the golden hand, and the entire space within the array finally completely collapsed.

Jin Tong reverted back to her human form before flying back to Han Li's side, following which she quickly inspected the surrounding area before remarking, "So we're still in the Extraheavensphere."

Han Li peered into the surrounding spatial rifts as he mused, "No wonder that array was so difficult to break, it combined the power of ten immortal regions!"

He then turned his gaze to Zi Shan's duo in the distance, and Zhu Yan asked in a grim manner, "What do we do now?"

"With the array broken, we're no longer able to stop them," Zi Shan sighed.

"But how do we answer to the supreme lord?" Zhu Yan asked.

"Meng Yuan has already fallen, while Dong Lihu has been severely injured. As for you and I..."

Zi Shan's voice trailed off here.

"What about us?" Zhu Yan hurriedly asked.

"You and I have also suffered severe injuries," Zi Shan replied with a look of resolve in her eyes.

Zhu Yan immediately understood Zi Shan's intentions upon hearing this, and they took a glance in Han Li's direction before flying toward the nearest spatial rift, while Han Li made no effort to stop them.

"What should we do? These spatial rifts won't be around for much longer," Jin Tong asked.

Sure enough, the ten spatial rifts were gradually closing, and several of them had already disappeared.

"Let's get out of here as well."

......

The primordial army had been thrown into a state of disarray by the ferocious assault from the Heavenly Court cultivators, and out of all of the cultivators that had evacuated the Jade Pond Paradise, only several were able to resist the control of the Divine Dao Seal.

True Lord Cang Wu's trio was rooted to the spot as they did everything in their power to resist the effects of the Divine Dao Seal, and at the same time, they couldn't help but be stunned at the scene that was unfolding before them.

With this trick up Gu Huojin's sleeve, the situation had become very murky.

The Heavenly Court Dao Ancestors were ecstatic to see this, while the devilish and primordial Dao Ancestors were naturally far from pleased.

"I didn't know that the Divine Dao Seal could be used in this way, but just this alone is not going to be enough for you to turn the tables," the Reincarnation Palace Master said in a calm manner, then made a hand seal as his glabella began to glow with translucent light.

A translucent chain shot forth before vanishing into the murky, gray space above, while the Devilish Monarch also made a hand seal before releasing a thick beam of silver light into the same expanse of space.

A bolt of gray lightning suddenly flashed through the space there, and that was immediately followed by more flashes of lightning.

In the blink of an eye, several hundred bolts of gray lightning had emerged to form a huge gate.

A hint of alarm flashed through Gu Huojin's eyes upon seeing this, and he immediately threw a punch, sending a mountainous, golden fist projection hurtling toward the gate of gray lightning.

The golden fist projection was giving off an unmatched aura, and even before it had fully descended, its tremendous power was already weighing down upon the Reincarnation Palace Master and the others through the gray lightning gate.

It was as if all of the air in the nearby area had been sucked away, striking the four of them with a sense of asphyxiation.

"You focus on the gate, I'll hold him off for now!" the Devilish Monarch said as he sprang forward while raising a hand, and countless rays of silver light emerged from the space within a radius of several hundred kilometers around him.

The fractured space was instantly mended, and it had become countless times more stable than before.

Furthermore, a burst of profound and potent spatial power was emanating from the silver light, causing everything within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers to fall completely still, including the golden fist projection.

However, the Reincarnation Palace Master's trio and the space around the gray lightning gate remained completely unaffected.
