Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 263 Yang Jian's True Combat Strength? Gu Jiancheng Stops Pretending!

hum!

Not long after Gu Jiancheng and his two companions entered the evil energy, they encountered the so-called alien spirit!

It was a phantom monster resembling a soul, but it possessed a humanoid form and could even unleash human supernatural powers.

These supernatural abilities are extremely strange and unfamiliar, as if they come from ancient times.

It is extremely powerful, and it is also reinforced with the pressure of divine sense, making it impossible to defend against!

Fortunately, Yang Jian's combat power was particularly fierce. Compared to the Heavenly Pride Banquet, his storm was even more intense. Although he still hadn't unleashed his life soul, his power of the realm had already broken through to the advanced level, infinitely close to the peak.

Therefore, Yang Jian's spear flashed like a dragon, and his movements were bold and unrestrained, exuding righteousness.

Even though more and more strange spirits appeared around the three of them, and their cultivation had all reached the Saint Realm or above, they still could not get close to Gu Jiancheng and Li Nezha at all.

"Haha, I have to say, paddling feels really good!"

Li Nezha chuckled, but his hands were not idle; he kept bringing out the compass in his hand and placing it on the ground.

Once the compass is brought to the ground, the magic array will automatically activate, and a rich holy light energy will pierce through the darkness and soar into the sky from the compass.

Immediately afterwards, the energy of the nearby compasses resonated, fully activating the new compass array. Once incorporated into the grand array, the evil energy was completely driven away.

Gu Jiancheng stared intently, and had to admit that the person who came up with this method was a damn genius!

Although it is slower, it is the safest approach, proceeding step by step. Even if it cannot defeat the alien spirits, it will have the opportunity to retreat and defend the formation.

In just one hour, Yang Jian led the two of them to place more than a hundred compasses and open up a large area.

The speed is absolutely incredible. If this efficiency continues, even 10,000 compasses wouldn't take more than a month.

But at this moment, Gu Jiancheng, standing behind Yang Jian, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"Brother Yang, be careful!"

Just as Gu Jiancheng's warning voice rang out, a sword light suddenly shattered the void and arrived from within the dim evil energy ahead.

Even though it was compressed by the laws of the outer heavens, and the sword light was only a thousand feet long, it was still filled with extremely terrifying power and divine aura.

Yang Jian frowned, and his spear, imbued with the power of the wind, thrust forward to meet the attack.

boom!

But the next moment, a cracking sound suddenly rang out, and the spear light shattered instantly, while the remaining sword energy still swept over.

Not only that, the void cracked open, and a huge dragon tail suddenly lashed out.

They were actually ready to blast Yang Jian to death in an instant!

"Pretend I don't exist!"

Li Nezha finally recovered his senses, his life force surged, and a fiery phantom rose from above his head like an ancient god.

Immediately, a fiery spear struck down on the dragon's tail.

boom!

The shockwave was so powerful and terrifying that it shattered Li Nezha's spear, and the impact instantly forced Li Nezha, who was at full power, back.

Gu Jiancheng quickly caught Li Nezha and used his hand to dissipate the remaining force on him, thus preventing him from getting hurt.

At this moment, Yang Jian also used Storm Shield to neutralize all the sword energy impacts.

The three stood back to back, looking ahead, and then they saw a strange spirit emerge from the evil aura with its hands behind its back.

Beneath his feet lay a strange, ancient dragon.

This dragon's body was no different from that of the dragon race, but it had two wings on its back, a single horn on its head, and chaotic power surging in its eyes.

Both the alien spirit and the ancient dragon possessed an aura so powerful that they had reached the peak of the late Saint Realm!

"Damn it, the laws within this Outer Heaven are in chaos, suppressing our cultivation and combat power, but they are unaffected!"

Li Nezha said angrily.

Otherwise, they would never have been in such a sorry state if they were only facing a late-stage Saint Realm expert!

"This is the outer world, we can only adapt!"

Gu Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly, then looked at Yang Jian and said, "These two guys are the guardians of the area, there must be some great treasures around here."

Should I make a move?

Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow.

At this moment, he not only sensed the aura of the treasure, but also sensed that other Dao Palace cultivators were nearby.

They need to end the battle as soon as possible.

"Need not!"

But Yang Jian shook his head.

He immediately soared into the sky, his face resolute, one hand forming a seal in front of his chest, and a holy mark manifested above his brow, radiating brilliant light.

Moreover, his aura was visibly surging!

Finally, Yang Jian began to use his trump card.

It turns out that what he showed at the Heavenly Pride Banquet wasn't his true strength!

"Heh, a death throes!?"

But at this moment, the strange spirit let out a sinister laugh, and with a wave of its hand, the ancient dragon beneath its feet suddenly rushed out!

Roar!

The dragon roared to the sky, then opened its massive black maw, carrying a violent and evil aura, and swallowed Yang Jian whole.

This ancient dragon was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, it swallowed Yang Jian whole.

"Brother Yang Jian!?"

Li Nezha was shocked to see this and immediately rushed forward.

"Need not!"

But the next moment, Gu Jiancheng quickly pressed Li Nezha down and said, "He can handle it."

boom!

Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the head of the ancient dragon suddenly exploded.

At this moment, Yang Jian soared into the sky like a god, the holy mark between his brows shining brightly, and the spear in his hand shattered the void as it thrust down towards the alien spirit.

"Life and death destroyed!"

hum!

Yang Jian's spear, carrying almost the peak power of the Wind Realm, with faint flashes of lightning in the void, instantly pierced the alien spirit's body.

The alien cultivator's expression changed drastically; he clearly hadn't expected that this junior human would be able to unleash such terrifying combat power in an instant!

Immediately, the ancient sword in his hand floated up, swirling violently like a lotus flower, attempting to defend himself.

boom!

But the next moment, his sword aura lotus was shattered by a single spear thrust, and his entire alien spirit body vanished in an instant.

In just three breaths, Yang Jian had killed both of these formidable opponents.

Li Nezha was completely stunned, and Gu Jiancheng couldn't help but frown.

With the power of the peak realm, Yang Jian's martial arts talent has become terrifyingly strong.

It should be noted that even Gu Jiancheng today only reaches the half-step Law level in terms of the power of the realm.

He was only slightly better than Yang Jian.

Moreover, the sacred mark between Yang Jian's eyebrows is different from others; it doesn't seem to be something he acquired through cultivation, but rather something he nurtured himself.

That's why he was given such formidable combat power.

Keep in mind that this is in the Outer Heavens, where the laws are chaotic and combat power is suppressed.

Otherwise, Yang Jian's spear would have been even more terrifying!

At this moment, Yang Jian had already raised his hand and put away the two remnant souls as soul beads.

This is something that can only be obtained after slaying alien spirits and ancient monsters. Although it cannot be refined, it can be handed over to the Dao Palace in exchange for merit points.

"What is that ancient dragon? Could it be that there are other spirits in this outer heaven?!" Li Nezha asked with lingering fear.

If it weren't for Yang Jian, he would have absolutely no chance against those two.

"That ancient dragon was called a calamity beast by the Dao Palace. It was a monster formed after the ancient catastrophe, corrupted by evil energy."

"But most of them are controlled by other spirits."

“Brother Gu is right. Any place where ancient beasts of this level appear is an ancient ruin. There must be treasures nearby. Let’s search!”

Yang Jian wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled.

"it is good!"

Li Nezha nodded and was about to rush out, but Gu Jiancheng stopped him again and laughed, "You're really impatient. No need to look for it, it's over there!"

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng pointed in a direction and said.

"Brother Gu, how did you know?" Li Nezha asked, half-believing, "Really?"

After all, the surrounding area was filled with evil energy, and his divine sense was greatly restricted. He couldn't even sense any aura a thousand feet away.

"It's obvious at a glance."

Gu Jiancheng smiled and then walked over first.

When Yang Jian and his companion caught up with Gu Jiancheng, they indeed discovered an ancient ruin beneath a cliff.

The ruins have completely collapsed and been destroyed, lost in the ancient catastrophe.

But in the very center of these ruins, there was a pool of water a hundred feet in size, filled with three-colored spiritual milk, shimmering with dazzling brilliance, and emanating extremely pure spiritual energy.

"Hiss, could this be the legendary Three-Colored Celestial Spirit Milk?"

"This is a top-grade cultivation resource, a great tonic for Saint Realm cultivators!" Li Nezha exclaimed upon seeing it.

Gu Jiancheng also discovered that this three-colored Heavenly Spirit Milk was indeed formed by the convergence and compression of the essence of heaven and earth, and its energy concentration even exceeded that of the Enlightenment Pool water.

Although it's only a tiny bit big, it's absolutely priceless!

"Hurry up and take it, we'll split it equally!"

Li Nezha cheered and jumped for joy, and was about to rush down.

But this time, before Gu Jiancheng could speak to stop them, a cold voice rang out from behind them.

"Hehe, very good, I have actually discovered such a top-grade Heavenly Spirit Milk!"

"You lot, get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

Yang Jian frowned, then turned to look.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that at this moment, there were more than a dozen junior cultivators emerging from the evil energy in the void.

The leader's cultivation level has reached the mid-stage of the Saint Realm.

Moreover, what they were wearing was the battle armor that only formal disciples of the Tianxuan Palace possessed.

In other words, these younger generations are not from the Thirty-Six Domains, but are geniuses born within the Dao Palace!

"Damn it, who do you think you are? We found this treasure first, are you trying to steal it?!"

Li Nezha said angrily.

"Hmph, you lowly people from the mere Thirty-Six Domains, do you really want to die? Then I'll grant your wish!"

"Remember, my name is Xu Huang!"

As the leading junior grinned maliciously, several other prodigies behind him unleashed their full power and charged down.

Gu Jiancheng looked at Yang Jian, who simply nodded slightly and said, "Make your move and kill them all!"

Now, without resorting to all his trump cards, he is finding it difficult to cope.

"Hehe, that's exactly what I was thinking!"

Gu Jiancheng then revealed a sinister smile, and with a wave of his hand, the power of the peak sword realm manifested as ten thousand thunderous swords, which erupted from his body!

In an instant, a terrifying pressure swept across the heavens and earth, shocking everyone present!
