Yi Gong had imagined the scene of opening the seventh meridian many times, but he never expected it to be like this!
Tuan Zi held the Ancestral Golden Feather and separated a portion of her pure bloodline power to forcefully open his meridians!
Every part of his body seemed to be torn apart bit by bit, and intense pain came. Yi Gong's face was pale, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
He panicked and wanted to break free, but how could she let him?
His mind was almost blank. Only the scarlet-gold flames burning in front of him were hot and terrifying!
As the First Elder of the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan, he had never thought that this flame would actually cause him such pain one day.
He wanted to call for help, but he realized that his throat was already being strangled by an invisible force. He could only be silently forced to bear all of this.
Tuan Zi's eyes were burning as she slowly and firmly moved the Ancestral Golden Feather in her hand!
…
An intense and terrifying energy fluctuation came.
The heavenly lightning surged crazily and entered the extremely dazzling flame one after another.
Mu Dongyou frowned tightly. This situation… seems a little off.
He was about to get closer to take a closer look when he saw the golden heavenly lightning suddenly surge up and wrap it tightly. He couldn't spy on anything at all.
"Dongyou." A familiar voice came from behind.
Mu Dongyou immediately turned around. "Second Deity!"
Yu Qian waved his hand, and the surrounding heavenly lightning seemed to be a little afraid and retreated.
He was stronger than Mu Dongyou, so it was naturally easier for him to move here at this time.
"What's going on?" As Yu Qian asked, he stared intently at the huge ball of light not far away.
At this moment, countless golden lightning bolts were wrapped around the golden flames. It was a dazzling light that made it impossible to see anything.
Mu Dongyou quickly told him what had happened.
"So, the three of them are inside now?" Yu Qian frowned.
Mu Dongyou nodded and looked worried. "Yi Zhao is the clan leader after all. He decided to burn himself so decisively and has an extremely strong temptation. It's normal for Yi Gong and Tuan Zi to come here, but his actions were too sudden, and it is extremely dangerous. If he isn't careful, the remaining two will be affected to a great extent."
Hence, the most important thing now was to make Yi Zhao stop!
However, he had already gone insane, and the fire burned half the lightning pool. It was extremely hard to get him to stop.
Yu Qian's expression turned grave. "Why did Yi Zhao suddenly become like this?"
After being trapped here for so long and being continuously tortured, Yi Zhao did not behave in that manner. Something happened today, and he actually—
Mu Dongyou shook his head. "I don't know either. It's as if he was triggered by something…"
Yu Qian furrowed his brows. Could it be because he sensed that Tuan Zi had opened her seventh meridian? That is probably the only explanation. Yi Gong's life and death doesn't matter, nor does Yi Zhao's death matter much. The key is Tuan Zi; she has just opened her seventh meridian!
Yu Qian had personally witnessed this process. He knew too clearly how terrifying Tuan Zi's bloodline power was! Hence, he now had to protect Tuan Zi no matter what!
He thought for a moment before coldly saying, "Immediately seal the lightning pool and chase all the silver lightning out, leaving the golden heavenly lightning at the bottom."
Yi Zhao chose to burn himself, and this process required the absorption of horrifying amounts of lightning. Only by cutting off the supply of force could they have hopes of stopping him.
But once this was said, Mu Dongyou did not move immediately. He revealed looks of difficulty. "Second Deity, this…"
Yu Qian's expression turned cold. "Is there a problem?"
Of course.
Mu Dongyou took a deep breath in and braved himself to say, "Second Deity, t-these lightning bolts… aren't exactly under my control now!"
Yu Qian's brows twitched harshly. "What did you say?"
A gush of cold intent rushed over and wrapped Mu Dongyou!
Mu Dongyou's voice became hoarse. "F-from just now…"
In the beginning, it was still a small portion. But as time passed and Yi Zhao's fire grew bigger, more and more lightning bolts became maniacal.
At this point, he had almost completely lost control!
If he had any method, he wouldn't have landed in such a state where he was trapped outside by the lightning bolts and could not enter the area.
"This lightning pool has been under your care for the past 10,000 years. Every single heavenly lightning bolt should be in your control. Now, you're telling me that you can't control them?!" Yu Qian's voice suddenly rose in a cold and stern manner.
He was usually gentle and elegant toward the outside. Even if he was angry, he normally smiled a little, causing others to be unable to understand him.
Seeing him explode, he was clearly frustrated to the maximum.
Mu Dongyou's entire body tensed up, and his lips trembled slightly. He wanted to say something, but he realized that everything was for naught.
That was because this was the truth.
After a while, he finally said, "…I'm useless!"
He himself did not know what was going on. It had always been fine previously, but now—
Yu Qian clenched his fists tightly. Such a situation has never happened to the lightning pool for the past 10,000 years. What is happening now?
Seeing Mu Dongyou's appearance, he was infuriated, but it wasn't time to lecture Mu Dongyou.
He closed his eyes, focused, and then raised his hand.
Countless rays of light flew out and rapidly formed a seal in front of him. A tremendously terrifying aura spread from the middle.
Then, he slowly pushed his hands forward.
That seal immediately flew out and grew with the wind!
Everywhere it went, those swarming silver lightning bolts seemed to be guided by some force and suppression and moved over.
…
This was the scene Chu Liuyue saw when she came.
Under the crazily burning ball of fire, there was a gigantic red seal quietly floating.
Lightning bolts kept flying over before they were suppressed forcefully. It was like a gigantic web that gathered all the surrounding lightning bolts.
That is Yu Qian's doing! He is indeed an extremely strong warrior above a legendary warrior. With just one move, he can easily trap all these lightning bolts…
Her gaze shifted and landed on the ball of light.
The fire burned, and the rays of light melted.
One couldn't see anything from the outside. Still…
Chu Liuyue had an agreement with Tuan Zi, so she naturally knew what was happening inside. This is a great opportunity. As long as Tuan Zi can forcefully open Yi Gong's meridian, the trio's auras will become extremely similar! At that time, no matter what they do, it will be much more convenient.
The key is that they require countless lightning bolts, no matter if it were Yi Gong opening his meridian or letting the fire continue burning to confuse the lightning pool. However, Yu Qian has already started obstructing this!
Chu Liuyue pressed her lips against each other and rapidly rushed toward the burning ball of light. "Tuan Zi!"
