Blood leaked from Tian Gouwei's mouth, but his expression was as calm as ever. The pain didn't seem to bother him anymore. At the same time, one could see his appearance constantly aging, and his vitality continued to deplete at a visible rate.
Seeing this, the demonic eagle and the man in black calmed down. As long as they held on for a period of time, Tian Gouwei couldn't eventually withstand the heavy consumption of the formation.
Tian Gouwei's mind moved, and countless golden lances appeared in the air, surrounding the demonic eagle, the man in black, Peng Fuyin, and the Peng Clan disciples in all directions.
Peng Fuyin's face changed drastically. He couldn't help urging. "Sir, please do something!"
"Shut up!" The demonic eagle scolded angrily. "Just try your best to avoid it."
Hearing this, Peng Fuyin's face flushed red in anger… Avoid your mother! If I could avoid it, why would I urge you?
"Go." Tian Gouwei waved his hand, sending all the golden lances toward the enemy.
"Ancestor, help!… Arghhh!" Several Peng Clan disciples were instantly annihilated by the golden lances. They couldn't even put up any resistance.
Peng Fuyin's face turned ashen. He couldn't even help himself. How would he help them?
He roared angrily and urged his power to the limit, trying his best to avoid the golden lances. Even though he couldn't completely dodge them, he could at least prevent a fatal point.
Meanwhile, the man in black and the demonic eagle were no different. They were dancing under the rain of the golden lances and got a few injuries. Bloody holes appeared on their bodies as they gritted their teeth, enduring it.
However, as time passed, more golden lances appeared in the air. No matter how agile they were, they couldn't continue to avoid it further.
The demonic eagle raised his head to look at the sky and roared. "Master, I beg you to take action!"
"Hmph! Useless things!" A cold snort resounded from the sky, causing Tian Gouwei and Han Bingling, who was retreating to the distance, to frown deeply.
Soon, a tall figure emerged from the clouds.
Han Bingling's expression changed drastically as she recognized this person. He was no other than the Northern Endless Sea Lord, Yin Bei!
Yin Bei floated above the golden dome with his arms crossed before his chest. He glanced at Han Bingling and Tian Gouwei. "Your trump card is not bad."
He paused for a moment and revealed a playful smile. "Should I give you a surprise right away?"
Han Bingling's brows knitted together tightly. She suddenly remembered the information that Hong Wuya had exchanged with his life. Yin Bei said that he had the ability to control the divine city… Could it be…?
Before this, Han Bingling and Tian Gouwei had thoroughly checked everything on the Profound Sky Divine Formation and found nothing wrong. They concluded that it was impossible for Yin Bei to control the formation… But why did he look so confident?
In the academy, Lin Canghai frowned deeply and looked at Sky Peak. He had scanned the entire mountain with his Spiritual Sense, but he didn't find anything unusual. What could it be?
Yin Bei shook his head and said with regret. "Ah… I don't want to reveal it this soon, but it seems I have no choice. After all, both of you are going to die soon."
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, a familiar figure slowly descended from the clouds and stood beside Yin Bei. His appearance immediately stunned everyone. Especially Tian Gouwei. His entire body trembled in shock.
"You…How could it be…" Tian Gouwei muttered in disbelief.
"I'm sorry, grandpa. I hope this won't give you a heart attack." The man curled his lips. If Yun Lintian was here, he would also be shocked because this person was no other than Tian Gouwei's grandson, Tian Jiuyi!
"This… How could it be him?" Lin Taixu and the academy elders stared at their "young master" blankly.
"Your reactions are not bad." Yin Bei laughed slightly when he saw everyone's expression.
He looked at Han Bingling and said. "I have to admit that you're very smart. You've figured out several of my moles around you. Unfortunately, you could never figure out this one."
He chuckled and turned to Tian Jiuyi. "It's your show."
"Don't worry, Master. This performance won't disappoint you." Tian Jiuyi grinned. His current appearance was full of evil, contrasting with his usual humble demeanor. It was as though the two were entirely different persons.
Tian Jiuyi glanced at Tian Gouwei and said with a trace of regret. "Thank you for taking care of me all this time. I appreciate your kindness. Really."
As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing. His eyes seemed to fill with endless mockery.
"W-Why?" Tian Gouwei seemed to lose his soul.
"Why? Are you seriously asking me this, old man?" Tian Jiuyi sneered disdainfully. "Do you really think that old ghost Tian Zuo was as powerful as everyone said? Heh. He was nothing but a mere servant. If it wasn't because of my master, I don't know how long I would be kept in the dark by you!"
Tian Jiuyi was, in fact, a very ambitious and arrogant person. Although he was born with a bloodline of "Sky Throne Monarch," he wasn't satisfied with it. He always looked for an opportunity to surpass his ancestor and break with this unworthy bloodline.
Seven years ago, he secretly traveled around the Endless Sea in order to look for an opportunity. Unfortunately, he was caught by Yin Bei's servant.
Naturally, he resisted at first until he learned everything about Tian Zuo. The world might admire him, but they had no idea that Tian Zuo was an ordinary person in the beginning. He was fortunate enough to meet a mysterious woman and devote himself to a servant role since then.
With Tian Jiuyi's innate arrogance deeply rooted in his bones, how could he accept the fact that his ancestor that he respected was nothing but a mere servant?
Since then, he decided to change his fate by relying on the Poison Valley. He wanted to completely destroy the "shame" that his ancestor left behind.
"There's no need to further waste saliva with a dying old man like you… Don't worry. I will give you a quick one." Tian Jiuyi shook his head and waved his hand.
All of a sudden, the countless golden lances abruptly stopped midair and turned around, pointing at Tian Gouwei and the others!
